WOW.

Well, what I really would like to do is write a 10 page essay listing everyone by name who I would like to thank. However, I know I would accidentally forget someone... So, at this point, all I have to say is WOW. WOW to the endless amount of texts and calls we continue to receive daily just to let us know they are thinking of us and we are in their prayers. WOW to the visitors we receive daily just dropping by see how we are doing and bring a treat or two. (P.S. Still trying to lose the baby weight... :) ) WOW to my husband's co-workers and bosses that continue to support him and do all they can to help make things easier for him and us. WOW to my employees who are doing their best at running my business the way I would have it. WOW to our ward and neighborhood who continue to bring us dinners and volunteer their services to us. WOW to our families who are helping us daily whether it is taking our kids or helping at the house. WOW to our friends who are planning these amazing events to help lighten our load. WOW to our friends who traveled great distances to support us, it is amazing to see how long true friendships really last. WOW to our Heavenly Father who continues sending blessings our way. And finally, WOW to my little angel Dylan who reminds me every day that if he can go through this and still have a smile on his face at the end of the day, then so can I...

    Mandy, I am so glad to hear that you and your family are being so well taken care of. I heard about Dylan a week ago. My heart just aches for you. I am so glad that you are taking time to blog about all your experiences. I read through all the posts and I can tell that your entire family is really pulling together. How lucky you are to have each other! Sending my love and many prayers, Jeri

    You know what? So many of us are watching you, Ryan,Dylan and the rest of your family members saying, "WOW!" Your stregnth, testimony, faith and love of family is inspiring to us all. I always leave this blog with tears-but also with a feeling to "do better" and to "step it up" Dylan is such a special little boy and even though I don't know him personally, he sure is teaching us great things and you, Mandy-we all stand in awe! What a great mom, wife and example you are! As always-you are all in our prayers. Love, Nicole White

    Your strength & faith has touched me to the core. Greg and I are checking the blog often because we are so concerned about how everyone is doing, especially Dylan. I, like Nicole, feel a strong desire to "do better" in all aspects of my life. Watching you all go thru this with such amazing faith has truly strengthened my testimony. Thank you for sharing this journey with us, as difficult as it is. You are touching lives and helping us all to keep perspective and "step it up". Families are everything and we are so blessed to have the knowledge that they are eternal. Love you all! Keeping a constant prayer for you . . . Jess
