Hello everyone! I hope you all had a great day. Im gonna try to keep this short since this wonderful migraine decided to hit me at a bad time. Today was an awesome day! We had a little change of plans but around here thats pretty normal. The boys were talking about wanting to go ride some rides at universal studios so I told them they could go out and spend the day together riding whatever their little hearts desired and they were more than thrilled. They left right after lunch and spent quite a few hours doing daddy and son stuff, they dont get to do it often so I didnt want to pass on the opportunity for them. The girls and I stayed back at the village and did lots of fun stuff. I didnt get to take any pictures since the boys had my phone sadly. I was just telling Arthur enforce they left to please not lose my phone. I love that man more than life itself but he is terrible at keeping track of things. He literally lost Aubri once when she just started crawling. It was only for a few seconds and I found her hiding under the bed. He said they were playing hide and seek but I know better. Haha. Anyway, I get a call about an hour later from him telling me he had in fact lost my phone but thankfully found it. They left it on a ride and didnt notice it until they walked away. They had a great day, Eli was grinning from ear to ear when they came home. They rode roller coasters and lots of simulators since Eli is a shorty and isnt tall enough to ride most of them there. The girls and cleaned up the villa, well I did while they played and giggled. Then we got dressed and went out into the village. We stopped by the ice cream parlor for some milk shakes, went to the fairy tree and looked around, slid down the indoor slide, walked to the water park and looked around, chased some ducks, went to the candy land park and played, then went over to the boat house, train house, and arcade. The slide terrified Aubri but after a few minutes she loved it. Lena absolutely loved the lights and stars there. The three of us spent more than three hours playing around before the girls got tired and we walked back. Lena helped me drive a boat which was super cool. Shes pretty good, she even helped me park it. The boys came back shortly after we did and we loaded up and walked back into the village for dinner at the gingerbread house. Today was Christmas Day here which was so cool. They had everything decorated, had reindeers, Santa and mrs clause, elfs, and even Jack Frost! They served Christmas dinner at the restaurant which was a great surprise. I love Christmas dinner. After that we went back out and met a ginger bread man and a penguin, the look on the kids face was priceless! We went over and watched the kids play lots of games they set up. Aubri started getting quite cranky so I took her back while Arthur stayed with Eli and Lena. They got to meet Santa and even got a present!!! The best part was when they made it snow. It was absolutely perfect! When they came back the kids were hungry again so we ordered pizza from the pizza place in the village and ate again while playing with the toys the kids got. Eli and Aubri were sleeping pretty quickly tonight. Lena bug is wide awake right now even with all we did today. That girl has more energy than anyone I have ever met. Im planning on taking the girls to the salon/spa here at the village tomorrow while the boys play in the arcade. They will get hand massages, nails painted, and tattoos. I cant wait! I love my girl time! Even though I stay home with them 24/7, I dont get to do as much with them as I would like. Its nice to be able to take them out and do fun things, makes my heart happy. Im so sleepy, I dont think I have ever been this tired. My body hates me right now, especially my feet. Its a good kind of hurt though, a hurt I dont want to end. Im more and more blown away each day by all of this. The lengths they all have went for us is incredible. It has been constant fun and something we truly needed. Odds are something like this will never happen again for us. We dont really get vacations and being able to afford lots of fun things is pretty impossible but it just makes me more grateful and this experience more of a treasure. I feel like a kid, a real kid. Not the kid I was growing up but how a kid is supposed to feel. Im so anxious to go to sleep just so I can wake up and do it all again. I thought I would dread the next day of heat and walking but I havent. I look forward to it all and love that I am constantly surprised. This place is amazing and magical and everyone here goes above and beyond for us. The other families here are so sweet and its so easy to talk to everyone. People dont look at us with pity and no one stares. Theres no whispering or giggling at us and terms like acc, Chd, pvs, and vsd are met with instant understanding and willingness to learn. I have learned so much being here and I love it. This world is full of amazing people who want to learn and sympathize without pity, Ive learned that from you all and being here has really brought it to light for me. This experience has also shown me that Lena is so much more capable of understanding than we were told she would be. Watching her enjoy this has brought a new hope for me. She is smiling all the time and laughing so much. I started thinking today about how incredible of a mother she would be if she were able to have children. I know she wont be able to but I know she would be the best mommy ever. She is so sweet, caring, funny, silly, and fun to be around. She would make the perfect mommy. It took me a long time to process the fact she wouldnt be able to experience the amazing life changing happiness that comes from being a mommy. It was one of the things I struggled with most. Eli asked me this morning if Lena would be able to see well enough to have kids and I had to explain to him she wouldnt be able to have any, it was hard to do but I did it and he seemed to understand thankfully. He just told me mommy, that means she is going to be the best aunt ever. Made me tear up. It doesnt bother me that I will take care of her the rest of my life, it just makes me sad the things she will miss out on. But I can honestly say I will make sure her life is amazing enough she doesnt even notice and Im sure Eli and Aubri will too. I guess I should get off here and try to get Lena to sleep. We are going to universal studios today so we both need some rest. Im gonna post some pictures and videos in a minute and I hope you all enjoy. We have had an amazing time here so far and Im so glad its not over yet. Please continue to pray for Lena to be seizure free. Im so happy she has went this long and really really hope it continues. Thank you all so much for all your love and support. We are so blessed to have you and I thank you from the bottom of my heart for loving our Lena so much. It truly means the world to me that so many people genuinely care about her, Eli, as Aubri. Oh, before I forget, Lena had the most beautiful butterfly land on her today in the butterfly garden. It was huge, like the size of my hand. It sat there while she was clapping for at least a minute. It was a beautiful moment. God bless Love, The Price Family
