My sweet little Bubba was going CRAZY locked up in our home.
He kept bringing me his shoes.... he was begging to get out of here. :-(
I was missing that sweet smile of his.
A kiss from his sweet Sissy almost got that smile back
but it still had not come back all the way.
This afternoon I was determined to get that smile to come back out and play!
So, I went out to the garage and got out an old friend.
(When Bubba gets tired of a toy we put it in the garage so that we can bring it back later and he gets excited to see it all over again. Seriously, I could just do his Christmas shopping with old toys in the garage and he would be happy as can be. )
So, I grabbed an oldy but goody..... a DOOR!!! wink!
We all know Bubba's love of a good door. :)
and then it happened..... that BIG ol' Smile came back home baby!!!!I missed that smile of his so much this week. I am always amazed by Bubba's strength and attitude as he goes through his trials. He was such a trooper!!! I want to share this again.....
To me one of Bubba's biggest strengths is that sweet smile. It might have gone away for a week but now that the storm and tears from this week have gone away that sweet smile has returned and for that I am grateful!!!!!!!!!

So glad he is feeling better and dodged another hospital bullet, especially at this time of year! Caleb LOVES doors too, he is in a new class this year, that has been my least favorite of the last 6 he has been there. But they mentioned on his daily notes that his door obsession was becoming quite a problem. If they would just let it go and not push him so much, it will pass and he will get interested in something else for awhile. But he does always eventually come back to those doors! :)
Nothing could be sweeter :)
You are absolutely right... one of his biggest strengths is his smile.
Utterly contagious and from the JOY that his Heavenly Father has put in his heart.
This was the medicine I needed today :)
I LOVE the quote and plan to use it for several other people going through rough storms right now. Most of all, I'm relieved and happy to see Bubba's signature smile again and know that he didn't have to go to the hospital! YAY!!!
Kudos to the friends who stepped up and took over. They know the truth: it isn't enough to say "Call me if you need me," when you know someone could use your help. They knew that the person who needs the help rarely ever requests it. Smart friends. Wonderful friends!!
