How Can I Help?

This is a copy of an email I sent out and thought that it would be a good idea to post it on the Blog to make it easier for people to check in to see where they can help if they would like to help out.

Thank you to everyone for your loving and supportive emails, phone calls and notes. We are blessed to have such wonderful friends and family. Lots of you have asked this question and have offered us your help so here are the things we need help with right now. Things will change as Sebastian comes home and as things move forward but for now here is what we need.

• Many of you know that Weldon and I are not allowed to be alone with our children while CPS continues their investigation. To that extent we need people who can stay with us at the hospital and at home. No amount of time is too small. Anything to give the grandparents a break would be helpful. Especially since we cannot spend the night with Sebastian unless we have someone else in the room with us.
• We need help with playdates with Austin so that he is not stuck at home all the time or at the hospital.
• Weldon and I need a place to crash at night. We don't want to impose ourselves on one person.
• If this restriction continues for a long time, Weldon and I will be looking into getting an efficiency so if anyone knows of a cheap place to live down South, let us know.

These are the most important things we need help with right now. We are going to need more help with things like running errands and stuff later but right now just finding ways for us to be with all 3 of our children so that they are not any more stressed out by the situation is where we can use the most help.

If you can help, give us a call or drop us an email.

Sebastian continues to improve. He smiled at Weldon today. He is beginning to look more like our Sweet smiling boy.
