Good evening friends.

Tonight I would like to Thank God for letting me participate in life on August 4th, 2015.  I can speak for anyone else but without the man upstairs I was a walking dead man.

OK, so tomorrow morning we have the full feature from The Empire State Building’s Illuminating Light Show of Endangered Species from this past Saturday night. It will be featured on “The Good News Channel” — Folks, wait until you see more of these larger than life images of our beloved animal friends and read the full story on this event.  August 1st, 2015 will go down in history of one of those most historic NYC nights ever.  The history books will speak of this for hundreds of years to come.  OK, but that is tomorrow.

Let’s talk today and tonight. We hope everyone had a fabulous Poppy Tuesday.  I am so in love Poppy its insane. He eats out of my plate, drinks water out of my glass.  Anytime Vanessa says: “Do you realize there are germs in that water from Patrick.?”  I respond with, “Do you realize the chandelier on the ceiling can fall and crack our skulls open at anytime? — Vanessa do you realize we can get hit by a car every time we walk outside?”

I told her, I don’t sweat the small stuff, if Patrick has some germs, and I catch them, I’ll live.  It makes him happy, and that makes me happy.  The rest is in God’s hands.

OK, lets close with two Poppy notions tonight;

1. Everybody has “The Poppy Chance”  — He represents Hope and Possibilities.  And man did I need those two words over the years.

2. I remember when Vanessa and I first got him, it was incredible. And he was so eager to please us so he would not be sent away again.  He didn’t realize if hell freezed over that was Never happening.  But in September of 2013, hell did freeze over and it was almost lights out for me.  The point is not to bore anyone with a story you heard many times, but I knew when i woke up after six days under, it was Patrick’s Heart that was breaking.  I knew Sammy & Henry were going to OK.  They were shaken up yes, but they had been with me a while.  Patrick was with us only 3 weeks before i went down for the count.  When I made it home alive, I never let that little boy out of my sight again. My bond with Patrick is unbreakable and unshakable.  Madly in love with my little boy.
