Yesterday evening, Matthew and Orion met JP and me at the loudest pizza parlour we could find. No, it wasn't on purpose, it's just that HomeSlice Pizza happens to be Orion's favorite.
We had a very fun time exchanging jokes and remembering good times. Although I had a lesson in learning to read lips (it was too loud so I must be too old!) we still managed to have a decent conversation and some good pizza. I told Orion a joke about a cat and he repeated it several times so that he could remember it, so as to give enjoyment to others.
Matthew and Orion took turns pretending to shove a napkin into one ear, through their head, and out the other ear to do some cleaning. It was funny to watch and a joy to feel Orion's exhilarating participation in a "jest fest". He is such a sharp person and doesn't seem to miss a thing.
When we were done eating, Orion, JP, and I waited out on the sidewalk for Matthew to bring the car around. There was live music playing across the street which entertained us. JP started dancing and Orion moved his wheelchair around to the beat, keeping time with JP. It was great!!
Even if you only think of the cute little red head for a second or two every day, we thank you. A kind thought of someone is a quick prayer to God for them. And we keep all of you in our prayers of gratitude to the Big Guy in the Sky!
Love always, Orion's Nana Colleen
