Hayley has been telling me to write on this for a long time, but after she writes I don't know that there is much left for me to say about the everyday joys in life. The only things she doesn't say much about is herself, and being that that is what I spend most of my day thinking about, that is what I figured I should write about.


I spend most of my time during the day listening to music. I don't know if anyone has noticed, but about 98% of songs are written about Love, whether it be good or bad. I like that though, because it makes me realize how lucky I am, because I have someone I can think about when I am listening, that I swear fits every discription of every love song ever written. The good songs make me appreciate how blessed I am to have Hayley, and the sad songs too make me realize how blessed I am to have Hayley. Sounds really cheesy, but its a great feeling to love someone that much.


She called me yesterday in a panic, becausee her and Jack faithfully visit these two ducks, and when she got there yesterday, one of the Ducks wasn't looking so hot, she called me so worried about this duck. So when I got home we went back up there to check on them, and there was only one that came to see us. The other didn't make it. Hayley was devastated. I don't think she slept much last night, just worrying about that poor duck, and worrying about its partner that never left its side. She is that way with everything and everyone. Always worrying about how everyone feels, and what she can do to make their life better. Jack and I benefit more than anyone from this. We are so lucky to have a wife and mom that cares so much about us.


This last thing I write on behalf of Jack. I always tell people that we have been blessed with such a great little kid. He is always happy and always smiling. I think if anyone was depressed they would just need to spend a day with him and they would see how wonderful life really is. But I think I would be that happy too if I got to spend all day with Hayley. He loves his mom so much and lights up every time he sees her, even if shes only been gone for ten minutes.


Hayley I love you and Thank you for........being you.

Hayley--

To answer your question... Febrile seizures come on when their body tempurature spikes rapidly. There will always be a fever involved. The seizure can be a day after the fever also... to be safe, if he gets a fever, give him motrin or tylenol.

I have heard that little ones can get it from being in the hot tub (because their temp gets too high fast).

I hope you NEVER have to go through it either...

I loved it! When I see you two together, you can't help but to notice how well you treat each other. Shawn, you are lucky to have Hayley, but I also think Hayley is lucky to have you! The duck story says a lot about Hayley. Thanks for sharing your feelings, Shawn.

Shawn, Monica made me read this and now I know why. Stay tuned for a post by me about how great Monica is. You guys really are great and a good example to us. Everybody better shut up about how sweet you are or you'll never write again. It really was nice to read.

Hayley, I just had to comment on your sweet husband. I also got a little teary eyed when I read it, mostly because I know you've got such a nice guy that really appreciates what kind of person you really are. You will always be one of my favorite people.

So sweet!!! Hayley you are amazing and you and Shawn make a great couple that has turned into a darling family. Mom told me about the duck and I was SO MAD she even told me about it because it just broke my heart! I kept saying why would you even tell me that! I didn't want to know! You have such a tender heart Hay. I agree Jack can always make you smile. I wish I could see him everyday. I love his great big smile! We need to come visit very soon.
