Its with great sorrow, we heard yesterday that CARTER CUMMINGS passed away after fighting such a courageous fight against neuroblastoma. Please pray for this precious soul and his family and friends

As you can see from the pic today, we have our tickets for the FIFA WORLD CUP!!!!!!!! We are so excited and Deqlan was also rather chuffed to come with to the ticketing centre - so exciting - you know whats so sad, its seems like our little family are the only ones that are so excited about it being here - ok, us and Deqlans school Little Leaps. The teachers are in full support with Football friday and next week Friday is Grandparents day. This is when all the grandparents come and watch their grandkids sing some songs they have practised very hard ! Unfortunately its not for parents, which many are so sad about , but thankfully i have found the way to be there - i am hosting a table so will be able to be there, i cant wait , i am so proud , i am thrilled just thinking about Deqlan and his buddies singing together on stage ! Thank You Lord

Deqlan has been eating better since his teeth have been fixed. We even tried new things from an awesome place called O Crumbs . We heard about it loonnnggg ago and Elriza also told us about it, so we eventually decided to make the journey to go and check it out! We are so happy we did - bread, biscuits, cereals, ready made meals, sauces, bread and scone and biscuit mixes - you name it - they have it ALL GLUTEN FREE! Most of the items are also CASIEN SUGAR YEAST AND SOYA FREE - so we came home with a nice selection of things to try. First up was the bread - wow , Deqlan couldnt get enough of it and ate four slices ! Unfortunately his tummy didnt agree and he got sick that night - so smaller amounts definitely better. Yesterday we tried a carrot muffin for little lunch at school and he wouldnt even try it - it took the entire day for him to accidentally put a crumb in his mouth, and then realised, hey this is good, very good and finished the entire muffin. Then we tried spagetthi bolognaise last night- Deqlan was just not having it . He really is against anything new, he wont even try it. After crying for about half an hour , i managed to get a sliver of spagetthi in, and so we carried on for another half an hour and eventually Deqlan was taking entire mouth fulls - he loved it - the food is so delicious you wouldnt know the difference!

He is as cute as a button at the moment , actually he has started saying ' I AM GORGEOUS'

Deqlan also loves telling us about the new Woolies soup add, even adding in "13.95 each" at the end

But the most memorable was waiting in line at Macdonalds , Deqlan looks at us and says' MY NAME IS DEQLAN MACDONALDS' Boy did we laugh!

Deqlan still continues to enjoy school, at the moment, they focusing on colours and shapes, which Deqlan is loving!

We off to Declan Day tommorow , in honor of angel Declan Du Toit - so come along if you feel like a lovely afternoon out with the family and at the same time supporting this amazing cause. All Hands on Dec Friends look after all the warriors and their families in every way they can!
