Brothers & Sisters

We love to see the older children looking out for the younger ones,

and involving them in their games.

Next stage for Lilly

After 5 casts and then her tenotomy, Lilly went into her brace this week.

She is really thriving and and piling on the pounds!

Spiderman & Ultraman

It is safe to say Jacob was the happiest boy in the CP Unit on Friday.

He celebrated his 8^th birthday and all he wanted was a Spiderman towel and an Ultraman toy.

He got what his heart desired, as well as a build it lego style toy,

which are now his treasured possessions!

Landon couldn't wait for the celebration to begin.
He proudly displayed 4 fingers to anyone who asked how old he was.

Time for the cake, he blew out the candles like a pro,
then straight onto the pressies.

He's been borrowing his big brother Jimmy's helmet for ages,
so now he owns his very own

Superman helmet and a matching towel.

Even after the party was well and truly over,

he was still holding a card,

wearing his helmet and

singing at the top of his voice

"Happy Birthday" in Chinese & English!

So thankful

Saturday morning dawned with the news that Ethan was very sick.

So the day was spent at the hospital, seeing Drs and getting help for him.

He has intestinal issues, so we thought there was a complication with that, but fortunately it wasn't.

We really don't know what the cause was - but after being very sick, and in pain, he started to recover and feel a whole lot better.

Boy, it sure was good to see him get back to his old self again.

He spent the night in hospital, just for observation.

By the morning he was very ready to get home

and

what a warm welcome got from the Carers and other kids in the Unit.

Lending a hand

We all know helping out is part of everyday life

and here at the House of Love

the kids do just that.

Preston is learning how to put things away.

The kids in the CP/Res Unit

fold their washing and then put it away.

and...

would you believe,

they love doing it!!!

Babies Unit Arrival

This little guy arrived in our Special Care Babies Unit on Friday.

He was born with Anal Atresia and has since had surgery.

All he needs now is to recover,

and catch up on some of his milestones.

But, we need your help.

He needs sponsors to help us

provide 24/7 Care and all his daily needs.
