Happy 9th Birthday Kiera










This year Kiera's Party was kinda thrown together. We did not have her on her Birthday, and was not able to have her any extra time over Christmas break. So we did the best we could, with what we had.(there is currently no court order that will allow us to move them, and we go to court in a month....Since we live out of state, it limits us currently on what we can do!) So I am sorry Kiera it was not bigger or more planned...... Happy 9Th Birthday Princess Kiera. Next year we will have to have an extra big party for you! :) You are the best child a parent could ask for, I hope all your wishes come true...till your next Birthday! A Special Thank You to Taylor who Decorated this cake for us! Kiera Loved it, and Thanks Nana, for baking it at the last minute! I don't know what I would do with out my family! I must say as a mom, this was one of my proudest moments.... At no point did Kiera complain, or even get upset over any of this. To be honest she was grateful for the little things this day. She understood things were out of our hands, and was just happy to be spending time with us! We love you Kiera!!!

Merry Christmas To All, and To all a Good night!





Merry Christmas! This year Christmas was kinda a crazy time in our lives. We made the best with what we had! Our house is pretty crazy Christmas morning, but we did manage to snap a couple of pictures. It may look like a lot of presents under that tree but remember, 8-10 small gifts per child times 5...its about 50 gifts! They each loved what they got, and played their hearts out! Kiera and Dillon were both very happy to get their DS's! Kirstynn and Jazmyne were most excited over their Fisher Price Little People! Gabby loved her shaking dancing reindeer! I hope all of you have a safe and happy holiday! Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night!

Our American Dream

That is my american dream. We have purchased our first home as the Roddy Family! Its a 3 bedroom, 1 bath home in a little town called Payne. It will need some TLC, but as a family we are happy with it. We will be able to adapt it for Gabby. We will now be paying on something thats ours! I cant wait to see what memories we can build in our home.

It was a sad goodbye!


Well this was by far the hardest part of goodbye for us. Mrs. Kim! I cant put into words what this woman has meant to us and Gabby! I was so nervous the first time she walked into our house.... I had no clue what to expect. Little did I know she is the best OT a person could ask for. She has the biggest heart, warmest words, and the most gentle hands! Gabby loves her! She hears her voice, and smiles before Kim even makes it to the room! Kim has helped guide us, listen to us, to even in my opinion saved Gabby's life.I know Gabby will miss her, and so will we. She has left some big shoes to fill. I cant say thank you enough Kim for everything. I miss just being able to talk to you, and watch you work with Gabby. You have showed us what and how to work with Gabby. If it were not for you I would still think she was made of glass! You have made her do great things in life. (I know someday she will sit, thanks for believing in her) So many times other don't. They count her out! I cant wait to see what the future holds, but Gabby's future is only because of her past...and without people like you....I don't know if she would still be here for the future!
