Today..... Part 2

All things considered, today was a pretty good day. Kat got Eli up this morning and off to school. She went to work until well after lunch. Ma and Pa Roller came over with Carrie and spent the afternoon with us. Eli came home from school with lost of cards made by his friends. I was able to sleep in late after Kat left for work. Eli was invited skating tonight with a family. All of us adults were able to sit around and visit with a meal from Outback. Then to top the evening off.........this came.




    At first we thought this was the star that they put up in the building at Make A Wish. But after reviewing all of the paperwork, it is an actual star, near the Orion constellation. It is named Isaac Joseph Roller, and has been carefully mapped out, and registered. You can even go to google to find it. The Make A Wish Foundation bought Isaac a star.......a real star. I will get the details so you too can see it.   
    Along with this came about 25 cards. They got both of yours Wendy. These cards mostly came from Joe's work, lots of heart moms, and friends though out the US. They would read the return address (the state) to see if they could figure out who it was sent from. Kat wasn't up to reading all the messages yet.  I think it might take a couple of days before she can do that.
   Eli got 2 cards in the mail, plus all those from school, so he's "The Man" right now.

   Just one more thing to show you before I sign off.......

Meet Eva.......the dog that Kat said DOES NOT get on furniture. Joe was up most of the night just resting on the couch. When I got up .....here she was. I just had to take a picture to show them.
Eva's real name was Diva, but they didn't like that, so they just call her Eva.
     We will be leaving Kats around 11:30 tomorrow morning. We will be arriving at RDU on that 11:30 PM flight. Our layover will be in Las Vegas, so Sherrill should have time to get in a few slots.
Hopefully things will return to the "new normal" soon! Thanks for all of your support throughout all of this.
