Day 7 ESPN Zone Party

Day/Night 7
We had our farewell party tonight at ESPN Zone! It was great. We had so much fun. One of the champions has a part on Sesame Street and brought Elmo to say hello to everyone. I can not tell you the excitement Adam had just hearing Elmo's voice. Sadly Elmo did not stay long enough for pics with the kids... but he sang with Miss America. Mark Wells preformed for us that was amazing! Two concerts in one week! They had great food and the older kids had a great time playing games, Adam had a great time sitting on Daddy's lap and watching Daddy play games.

I tried to collect as many signatures of the Champions as I could as well as Mark Wells and Miss America. i can not tell you how much Adam loves Miss America! LOL Daddy is a proud Papa!!!! Ha Ha ha... I know I said that last line before.... but so true.

Becca has come so far, she went from being frightened of some of the children to understanding and wanting to play with them. She has made many new friends and I hope has learned lessons that will last her a lifetime. Some one may look different on the outside, but is the same on the inside! This also should be repeated.... God Bless these children, parents, siblings and families. Some have been through hell and back, but are still thriving and fighting and a better person for it!

This has been an incredible week, but I will be happy to be home! our fight leaves at 1 and we are back home at 4:30.....if you are thinking that the math doesn't add up ...... you are correct! We have a layover at JFK, thank God it is a short one and we do not have to get off the plane!
