More Birthday photos! and a surprise visitor!

I've done the pictures back to front again! Sorry! So going backwards in time! Yesterday Lewis' ballpool arrived which we ordered about 6 weeks ago. It was great fun trying it out with our surprise visitor Jenna from Wales! Jenna is one of the daughters of our friend Angela from Wales and Jenna had said she was bored at home so I said 'come and visit' so she did! And we had a lovely time! Lewis loves Jenna and her sisters. Last August we spent a week with them in the Rhondda Valley and Lewis loved all the attention he got from all the beautiful Welsh women!
On Wednesday we went to Cannon Hall Farm (near Barnsley) with Jenna and Kath. It was very cheap to get in (an absolute bargain!) and we had a really good time! We bought some bags of food and so were able to feed the goats and sheep and even llamas and donkeys!!
We loved the donkeys. They were so friendly and very gentle.
With it being that time of year, there were lots of new babies! Lots of lambs and lots of tiny piglets!
Jenna finally felt brave enough to feed the goats, but she kept her gloves on!!
On Tuesday Lewis had been doing some sticking and colouring with Kath and so when Samuel came home from school, he showed us his artistic talents by helping out!
BY THE WAY ... Samuel got his Spring term effort results through at the weekend and he did REALLY WELL!! So a huge well done to Samuel for his hard work at school.
Here is a photo of Lewis with his Birthday card and gift from Kirsty A of Postpals. You can read more about Kirsty and other postpals at www.postpals.co.uk. Lewis got so many cards and gifts from postpal posties this year for his Birthday, but there are alot of postpals and they all need to be remembered so please if you havent already, take a look at the Postpals website, find a pal, and get sending!
On Tuesday it was so bright and sunny outside that Lew was able to go in his pool again, this time with the expert Kath! He had a great time and did some really good exercises and I think Kath was surprised at how warm it is in the pool even when its only 5 degrees outside! Here you can see how long (tall) Lewis is getting these days!
At the weekend we went to another 4th Birthday Party! Lewis' friend Joel was 4 on 27th February and he had his party on the Saturday. We had a lovely time at Joel's sporty party, Lewis was able to join in playing party games and he loved to meet Joel's other friends!
We had a relax and a cup of tea at Yolanda's house before we came home after a very busy day!
A lovely photo of the two BIRTHDAY BOYS who are now 4!

Hey Samuel - Good effort! Well done! xxxx

Lewis is gorgeous as usual, but it's good to give Samuel a shout out!

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
