Adventures in Bennionland

We got some great news this month when a special book arrived in the mail.

Eric’s Mom Stephanie and sister Anneliese have been hard at work. They self-published an adorable book staring our very own Will. Written in his voice it tells the story of being a kid with Celiac. We love that it focuses on the fact that he is a regular kid in so many ways – and this is just one part of him.

We tore into our package! Both Will and Walker were thrilled with the books and bookmarks. And honestly it such a treat to see both my kids names in the dedication.

Both boys took copies to school and their teachers read them in class. I cannot tell you how special this is – the more people understand Celiac the more “regular” Will becomes in the eyes of his peers.

Thank you Grandma Steph and Aunt Ali!

For those of you looking for your own copy you can find it on Amazon HERE! And you can check out the other two books they’ve written/illustrated!

For over a month now Will’s bottom front two teeth have been wiggly. This past week one made a definite move from wiggly to loose, and last night it feel right out!*

He is one thrilled kid!

*and I’m one thrilled Mom since watching that tooth come out (or helping it on it’s way) was about the last thing I wanted to do. So what joy to find that he woke up with it out of his mouth and laying on his bed! Now…if only the others would do that too…

Yes, they fell asleep this way.

I love them. My little yin and yang.
