Horse Therapy: Term 4
Wow, WHAT A TERM this was! We were very busy and took a lot of photos of our fun and happy memories! But most of all we are ever SO grateful for those who are by our side and offer to help us in whatever way they are able. I don’t know how we would EVER thank you all.
We were on the news again with some other friends from NKT sharing our story and how horseback riding benefits our life and Owen’s strength. Thank you for allowing us to be a part of that you guys! We had picture day where Owen got to pose with his buddy, Mack. We got to see our very first teacher who moved away, Smira, who had come back for a few months to help and visit. Nana got to come and watch for the very first time since it landed on the day before Owen’s first day of school when she had a sleepover with us and sister Paisley still came to help often. I love watching her help him. If she comes with, she helps with everything from putting on his helmet, to playing with him while he’s riding, to helping him take off his boots to climb back in the truck to cooling him off with wipes in the backseat and putting chap stick on him. What a sister.
And lastly, we were blessed to meet Michelle and be a part of Jordan’s Joy. Jordan’s Joy was established by the Vershaw family in memory of a local teen, Jordan Schmidt, who passed away after a brave battle with cancer. Their mission is to spread JOY to the brave kids that are fighting battles every day. They are small, but a mighty foundation and are fortunate to be able to tailor their assistance to each individual child that they can help. With their help you guys, Owen is able to enjoy a handful of terms to help his body stay strong and take some financial burdens off of our shoulders as a family at this time. It is the GREATEST blessing. Michelle came with a tee for Owen to wear and a Buzz Lightyear, as everyone knows we are big Toy Story fans! Thank you so so much to Jordan’s Joy and from one mama to another, Michelle! We will never be able to thank you enough for this. God bless your sweet Jordan.
Here’s to another wonderful term that flew by, I so love being able to look back on all of these memories!
Thank you for following Owen’s Story.
