5 Months

Today marks 5 months since I have kissed these sweet cheeks.  Each day seems to get harder instead of easier.

Last week we had a nice visit with our family therapist from Early Intervention.  We are so lucky to still have the people most important in the day-to-day care of Owen still checking in with us.  Losing Owen meant we also lost the routine of nurses, doctor appointments, and therapists that filled our weekdays.  Every now and then we are fortunate to see a familiar face. 

Monday's visit was to let us know how the money everyone donated to Pentucket Early Intervention program, in Owen's name, is being utilized.  Just over $3500 was donated when Owen passed away and the money is being used to spruce up a resource room at the center.  This room houses fun things like a ball pit, ceiling-hung swing, and an number of other adaptive toys that children within the program can experience.  It was in need of a facelift and Owen's money is being put toward making it a wonderful addition to the program.  It will soon be unveiled for use and called: Owen's Play Place.  Thank you to everyone who donated in his name- it means a lot to us and it will be wonderful for the Early Intervention community.  Here are a couple of picture of Owen visiting the room.
