What do children want?
Seems to me they want their parents to notice stuff.

Last night our son and I put a five dollar deposit on the new Pokemon game, Soul Silver, which is being released Sunday, March 14. The deposit ensures we can reserve a copy.
Otherwise, they are very likely to run out.
Apple’s iPhone sometimes has similar challenges.
What’s the moral here?
Cat’s in the cradle and the silver spoon. Little boy blue and the man in the moon. When you coming home? I don’t know when. But we’ll get together then….
Childhood diseases stick. Adult diseases stink. And there are so many of both.
What is a caring person to do? We all know, “You can’t do it all”. So perhaps the best approach is simply to become an advocate and supporter of the disease that hits closest to home.
Last night my son (9) and I had dinner at Epcot, at The Walt Disney World Resort. We were celebrating “Wednesday”. Since our Catechism class was cancelled, it was a free night, and we spontaneously chose Epcot. We live very close by.

Have you ever felt this hurt?
Have you ever wiped away my tears?
Have you ever measured the pains worth?
Have you ever sat in front of your food and prayed for it not to hurt?

Have you ever been afraid to eat, and ask yourself why?
Have you ever heard the saying you’ll be just fine?
Have you ever had pain just to sneeze?
Have you ever met anyone with Crohn’s Disease?
From the creator of the event: By having events like this, we are trying to raise as much money as possible to help cure Crohn’s Disease & Ulcerative Colitis.
