Sully said, "Hi Mom. Hi Dad, " after the breathing tube was removed. He is eating. Sully is also making funny comments that have been his trademark since he could speak. His sense of humor is present, much to the relief of his parents. He has been moved to a private room. He is recovering nicely. Keep the good thoughts and prayers flowing.
~ Gunner's Favorite Movie Night:
Two more days until Gunner's Favorite Movie Night! WooHoo! I am so excited about being in a theatre full of folks who want to show love and support for such a great family. Remember ALL admission donations and concession sales go to the Gillespies...so give, give give!
CeCe had another cross country track meet this weekend. She ran 3.5 miles in less than 27 minutes and was not satisfied with her finish. I am really proud of her. She has really improved her time since the start of the season. She is never satisfied with her finish. She want only to place first...
I have enjoyed a couple of extra days off from work this week as we were out for Fall Break. It was nice to be a little less rushed in the mornings. Since the girls were out last week, we did not get to plan anything special, but we did have a nice couple of weeks, just the same. The weather was very cooperative and simply perfect.

My little one is going to have a birthday next month. Remember how much fun birthday parties are when you are eight years old?!? Pictured above, you see her with some of the guests at her 8th birthday party. The handsome boy in the photo is her good friend Gunner Gillespie. Just three weeks after this party Gunner was diagnosed with DIPG. Gunner's incredible mom, Janna, (also pictured above) keeps current information posted about Gunner and DIPG here: http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/gunnergillespie .
Out of friendship for Gunner, Bella requests no gifts for her birthday. Instead, please contribute to Gunner's family fund. The information for contributions is listed on the caringbridge website.
