What a STAR!

Last week at school Lewis was Star of the Week for his good work in the communications room.
Also last week Lewis' cousins Katy and Emily were visiting from Leamington Spa so we went to see them at Granny and Grandads house. Lewis had a lovely time being entertained by Katy. Emilywas busy playing upstairs so we missed seeing her although I am sure we will see her again soon. Also visiting were Pat's granddaughters Libby and Joanna who also played with Lew for a bit.
On Valentine's Day we went to visit Rachel, Heidi and Phoebe and we met Sooty the rabbit! Heidi made Lewis a beautiful valentine's card!
Here is Rachel with Sooty the rabbit. Rachel is not growling at Lew! She was telling a very interesting story! Lewis got a Valentine Card not only from Heidi but also from his Postpals and one was even a secret one! We particularly loved the purple and white heart which was made for Lewis by his Postpal Erin.
Back at home, Charlie wanted to have a cuddle with Lew!
Finally, the weather was nice enough for us to go in our pool in the garden! Although it was only 2 degrees centigrade outside, the water in the pool was super warm (37-38 degrees) and the sun was shining and so we had a wonderful time doing some hydro exercises and enjoying being outside in the sun!
Here is Lewis with his Moomin which he got from Niki, Kevin and Noah. We love the purple/blue colour best but it only lasts for a second before it changes!
At the weekend we had a visit from Granny and Grandad, Pat and her son Ian. We had a lovelyl walk around the lake and a huge lunch cooked by James!
Today Kath did some super physio exercises with Lew and even got him standing up!!! Rachel and Heidi had also come to visit so we enjoyed playing together while Lew was also doing his exercises!
What a lovely week we have had, although very very busy!
Today Lewis was in the Doncaster Freepress which you can also see online at http://www.doncasterfreepress.co.uk/free/Other-kids-benefit-from-Lewis.3788926.jp.
And this time next week (Thursday) Lewis will be FOUR YEARS OLD!!!!

Hi, how are you guys?

Can`t believe you were so brave to go in your swimming pool at 2 degrees! Crazy, all I can say haha.

Lewis looks so sweet as a star!

Illya and Natasha are so excited about the party! I think they miss Lakeside company a lot.

Anyway, hugs and kisses to all, especially Lewis

The Lewis Jeynes Fund

The Lewis Jeynes Fund was established to provide care and support to Lewis Jeynes and the success of the Fund has meant that we have also been able to purchase specialist equipment for other children with undiagnosed neurologically degenerative conditions in Doncaster and the UK.

Lewis and his friends around the UK all suffer from acute and undiagnosed life limiting or terminal conditions and very often specialist equipment is difficult to afford due to the changed circumstances at home. This is where the Fund can provide vital assistance to those in need. All of the proceeds of the Fund go straight towards helping Lewis, and other children and families like him and us.

Contributions should be sent to The Lewis Jeynes Fund, 15 Kentmere Drive, Doncaster, DN4 5FL or by BACS to Nat West Bank, “The Lewis Jeynes Fund” Account No. 35662565 Sort Code 60 06 39. You can also go into your local Nat West Bank and pay into the Fund over the counter.

i love you much (most beautiful darling) by e.e.cummings

i love you much (most beautiful darling), more than anyone on the earth and i like you better than everything in the sky -sunlight and singing welcome your coming although winter may be everywhere with such a silence and such a darkness, no one can quite begin to guess (except my life) the true time of year - and if what calls itself a world should have the luck to hear such singing (or glimpse such sunlight as will leap higher than high through gayer than gayest someone's heart at your each nearness) everyone certainly would (my most beautiful darling) believe in nothing but love
