To Make Noelle Laugh
Thursday, October 27, 2011


Okay, everybody stop. 

Look up in the sky. 

Are pigs flying?

Because a two-day-in-a-row post from me is just C to the R-AAAAZZZY. 

I usually don't like to be so regular. 

On my blog, that is. 

But I have a very special reason for posting today. 

The most special reason I know. 

You see, I have this friend, Noelle. 

And if you don't know Noelle, you should. 

She has a blog called, Because Nice Matters. 

And that blog title epitomizes the very essence of Noelle. She is a splendid soul walking this earth. 

On August 5th of this year, Noelle became a mother for the very first time when Emily graced the universe with her sweet presence. 

Unfortunately, Emily has lived more of her short little life in the hospital than at the home her mommy and daddy made for her. 

Emily has some very serious health issues including, at this moment, a dangerous intestinal infection that the doctors are trying to figure out. Little Emily has already experienced a couple of surgeries, but this sweet girl always has a smile for her Mama. Already—like mother, like daughter. 

Noelle emailed me this week and asked me if I could write her something funny for her blog. She said she was tired of the sadness. 

I wish with all my heart that I could do so much more than inject a little silliness into her blog. 

But for today, along with my constant prayers, I have tried to honor Noelle's request. 

I borrowed the wonderful Mama Kat's writing prompt:  22 Things I Haven't Done. 

If you have a moment, I would love it if you could stop by Noelle's and give her some love. She really needs it right now. 

And if I may ask? Can you keep it PG? Her Mama reads her blog. 

Thanks so much, guys.  



Joann

Aw, Joann. I love you. Speaking of splendid souls walking the earth, you are one. Along with Bono. Did I just say you are with Bono? Oh, the rumor mills will be churning tonight. As you know, I'm a big fan of Noelle, Jason and little Emily and I will be on the lookout for just the right thing to incite a chuckle smile wink tic.

You're sweet Joann. :) You made me slightly cry. And your PG comment? Had me cracking up. :) I know Noelle sure appreciates you!!

Noelle sounds amazing. I'll keep her and Emily in my thoughts.

Julie said...

You are lovely.

I'm heading there now.

I can't even imagine the 22 things you've chosen...

And I'm only assuming there are no flying pigs involved. (Fingers crossed.)

Your list was stellar. And thank you for the chance to think of someone besides myself for awhile. I hope all goes well for their sweet family.
