Well this one I opened had an image of a Mama and Baby Giraffe snuggling. That's my sweet boy.
The other day, Cassidy was watching a show, I was folding laundry, so I wasn't watching it. But I heard a boy go up to a girl with a bucket of gummy fruits in animal shapes and ask her which one was her favorite and she said, they all taste the same right? And he said but which animal would be your favorite...I knew she was going to say Giraffe, and then she said, " I guess the Giraffe". I said to Cass I knew she was going to say a Giraffe, did you? Cass said she didn't even think of it until she said it. Alec always works his Magic. Here I am not watching this show, but I heard what I needed to hear.
We received a note and an email from Martha and one of Al's favorite nurses at the Jimmy Fund. They wanted us to know just how much it means to all of them that we sent in gifts for all of the children as they too want so much to make their patients happy and see them smile. They all talked about Alec, sharing him with others who never met him. And they shared all of their stories about Alec, the silly ones and the sweet ones. They shared what a special day Alec's Birthday was at the clinic and that Alec's Love was all around.
This made us feel so good, we know no one that knew Alec would or could ever forget him, and it brings us such comfort and love to know they were all honoring Alec by talking about him and how special he is to them, laughing about things he did or said, and loving him now just as always as the sweet beautiful boy that he is.
