Work and Play - Week of Apr. 23rd

Cameron met with his favorite professor this week at Grand Valley, Miss Lisa.  While she worked on some physical therapy moves with Cam, she was gathering information and pictures to use for her advanced graduate students.  Even though it's hard work, Cam always finds time to smile and laugh...

One of Cam's buddies celebrated his 4th birthday this week.  Cam and his parents attended Liam's party complete with homemade Elmo and Cookie Monster cupcakes! Jane and Liam's mom, Betsy, have an inside joke that in every picture of Cam and Liam, one kid usually looks great while the other is looking away or goofing off.  Turns out neither one of the boys was too excited about a photo shoot, especially in the chilly weather.
The sun did show itself on Sunday, however, when the family ventured over to Reed's Lake to meet up with cousins Coco and Libby.   They enjoyed a delicious lunch at Rose's and hanging out in the park.
Cam's good friend Emma spent some time playing with Cam and even shared a blanket when it felt a little cold.

It is with heartfelt thanks and a pang of sadness that we said goodbye to one of our all-time favorite Cam sitters this week.  Sarah is moving away from Grand Rapids after completing her graduate work in the physical therapy field.  She has known Cam for nearly 3 years and has had a lasting impact on his life and ours.
From the wise words of Winnie the Pooh: “We'll be Friends Forever, won't we, Pooh?' asked Piglet.
Even longer,' Pooh answered.”  We look forward to seeing you again soon, Sarah, our forever friend, and we thank you for everything!
