Sydney's Journal - April 2006

I got a cold right after my last transfusion so it didn't last as long as we'd hoped. Not even 5 weeks this time. Oh well, I'm feeling better now. Thank you, as always, to those generous people out there that donate their blood so that people like me can keep on truckin'.

It was a beautiful day today and Mommy and Daddy took me to a beautiful place. There were wonderful trees and flowers as far as the eye could see. It's a huge collection of gardens that's been opened up to the public for everyone to enjoy. I couldn't believe how many pretty colors there were. We saw some wildlife too. There were all kinds of birds and insects and I even spotted some turtles and fish in the lake. I just loved all the flowers. I had to stop and touch and smell as many as I could get my hands on. I was very gentle, of course. I can't wait to go back again some day.

All this time I was under the impression that eggs came from chickens. But today I find out that eggs also come from bunnies. Well, one bunny in particular, and not just any ordinary white eggs. These are colored eggs and some even have a surprise inside. You can't just go down to the store and buy them either. You have to wait till Easter time comes around and then hope this bunny comes by your house and leaves you some. They call him the Easter Bunny and fortunately he made a stop at my house today while I was taking a nap.
When I woke up, Mommy got me dressed and set me loose on the front yard. There were Easter eggs everywhere. I quickly got to work wandering around collecting them in my Easter basket. I couldn't wait to find out what they had inside. When I was all finished, Mommy helped me open them and lo and behold, they were loaded with all my favorite snacks. How did that Easter Bunny know?

Would you believe I've been to Sea World 4 times now? I enjoy it more and more each time. This time Mommy and I went with my Aunt and Uncle and cousins. It was lots of fun because this time I got to walk around most of the time instead of riding in the stroller. Plus I got to goof around with my cousin Makayla. I always enjoy the animals, especially the sea lion and dolphin shows. It was really hot but we stayed cool in the shade and drank lots of juice. We had a good time, but I don't think we'll be going back again until it cools off in the fall.
