Abby is Picture of the Month as she prepares to leave the family Easter party and drive back to school in La Crosse. I didn't know if we'd get to see her since her spring break was in early March. So glad to see her and I hope she had a good time -- looks like she did.
I have continued to modify the website due to a computer change which prompted me to change some of the programs I use to generate photo galleries. This month you'll see that under the Photos tab, you'll find all of the photo galleries including the Memory Hall of Fame and Noah Memory photos. Take a look. Noah's have changed. And I plan to add more Hall of Fame photos in the months to come. There may be more changes in the months to come as well. Let me know if you find issues.
Last month I mentioned the rather crazy weather this winter in Wisconsin. That moderated in March with temperatures about the same as the warm February. Actually, one day in February it got warmer than any day in March. Only one day in March did I have to shovel, making it a total of 5 days for the entire season. I likely would have planted some seeds in the garden, if not for a stretch of wet weather towards to end of the month. But I'm getting close.
Two notes from previous months to remember--
The tremendous outpouring of support to 2 special causes in memory of Noah continues. Significant dollars have been directed to the Waukesha Catholic Tuition Assistance fund, plus a scholarship fund has been setup in Noah's name at Waukesha South High School. Details are still being worked out on the scholarship, but it will begin for the class on 2022 and will continue for 1 or 2 graduating students in perpetuity. Noah is loved by so many. For those still wishing to the scholarship fund, you can find further information here.
(Update 8/2022. In June 2022, 2 $1000 scholarships were awarded to graduating seniors.)
(Update 6/2023. In June 2023, 3 $1000 scholarships were awarded to graduating seniors.)
Stephanie's Shirt Shop. Stephanie has come a long way but there are so many things she can't do so because of her disabilities. Some things she loves to do are drawing smiley faces, and repetitive tasks. The idea behind the business is to give her a job she enjoys and use her art in the design of clothing, such as t-shirts and sweatshirts, and involve her in the process of wrapping and mailing the ordered clothing. You can read more about it in the Facebook Group 'Stephanie's shirt shop' and the business website https://www.includestephanie.com/ We look forward to Stephanie's continued growth with this business.
(Update 8/2022. On the Movies tab, you can the WTMJ television report on the progress so far).
