Sundays With Jaden: * updated with grammie note The City OF Champions and the LIttle CHamp

* uPDATed WITH a NOTE from Grammie!

Sundays With Jaden: weekly update

I'll do this every Sunday for the gazillions
of you following his story: so keep coming back and leave a comment for them.
They read this !

Also: don't forget to grab Jaden's button, post it on your blog and share this Punkin Heads story. Cause you are awesome. possum.

For those of you unaware of this tough little man, you will first need to read his story here. ( click those words) I must preface your journey to reading that story with two reminders;

GRAB A KLEENEX.
I know this family personally.

So this Halloween I sit thinking about Mr. Jaden, our little man , the CHAMP. Here' s a pic to help you.. and also a BIG FAT REMINDER that we live in the city of champs should you forget. ahem... cough cough.. Jaden is in the PERFECT place for tough boys who WIN.

This was taken at CHOP ( Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh) What AWESOME things they do for the families enduring such heartwrenching times.

*And isn't J cute in his puppy jammies? I want some.

Arf! Arf!

I'm waiting to hear if he was feeling well enough to participate in what he SHOULD BE PARTICIPATING IN.. Halloween. Because he's a little kiddo and age 2 is the PERFECT YEAR to finally GET THE CONCEPT of : HEY.. THEY ARE GIVING ME CANNEEEEE when I go up to their door!

So I"m praying today for his health, for their strength and most of all; that he got to go out and get sum canneee. You do the same please because you're all awesome like that.

It's raining here right now in the burgh.. so I'm not certain of Halloween's success all together but I can't wait to see what he's going to be.

MY guess is a Super-Hero.
Which one, not sure.

Let's take bets and see who wins.

I guess Spiderman.

So Jaden finished up round FOUR out of the SIX rounds of chemo that he must endure to attempt to kill off this terrible cancer. He is still fighting for his life friends- so continue to pray for him.

Reports are in that he came through this last round of chemo with flying colors and that he still loves him some bread. Some butter bread specifically.

Cuz he's A CHAMP!

No problems to speak of other than yet another trip to the ER to fix his central line on Wednesday night. He must jump rope with that stuff!

I think so much about how they must try to make his life, their lives, as normal as possible and I think about all the things I'd do to if put in their position. I'd be giving him anything he wanted.

Jaden " I has an elephant Aunti Supah?"

Aunti Supah, " You wanna elephant buddy?? Ok. SUre."

* calling up Barnum and Bailey.

Supah, " Hey Barnum, what up. Hey listen. Send me Pickles for the day k? And send some peanuts too.. I'm fresh out. It's for Jaden. K thanks. "

Jaden- tires of playing with Pickles the Elephant while dodging poopy piles " I has a unicorn Aunti Supah?"

Aunti Supah, "Oh? A unicorn buddy?? That might be harder J. ( insert think real hard face) OK OK .. I'm on it."

* calling up Glenda Good Witch

Aunti Supah, " Glenda GOod..it's supah...Yah I'm good. Thanks.. no.. you too! Hey listen.. I need some help. Wave that little want and poof me an effin unicorn PRONTO.. it's for Jaden, kthanks.. gotta run.. the elephant is poopin in my living room!"

BUt they're probably WAYY better parents than I am. Keeping boundaries and rules in tact. I'd probably give into anything he wanted- cuz I"m a sucker like that. AND HE'S SO CUTE. He'd be playing with knives and driving the mini-van by now if he were mine.

GUess no visits to Aunti Supah are in the works huh?

So anyways. Think of little man as he takes a break from all the chemo this week. He'll begin his fifth treatment soon enough. I'm sure he'll be watched this week to make sure his counts don't drop too low and that he isn't in need of any transfusions. He also got sick last time AFTER chemo ended... remember the ranch and sausage episode? LOL!

As always. Do something in honor of Jaden today and pray for this family. Also leave a comment guessing what Jaden was for Halloween.

You're all the best.

* UPDATE FROM GRAMMIE 11/1/09

Dear d,

Again I say to you, you have an amazing way with words and very creative thought process to come up with wonderful stories!

THANK YOU!!!!

Yesterday we went over to help the boys carve the "jack-o-lanterns." Pap and Mom ended up doing all of the work, since Joey was watching TV and Jaden just wanted to sit on Mom's lap. They did amazing jobs of carving and the kids helped carrying them outside. We went home so they could take a nap, only to receive a call saying the temp was now 101 and they needed to go to the hosp.

Jaden's heart was broken, he wanted to go trick or treating. So they dressed him up in his cute little spider outfit. He couldn't wait to scare everyone! After making the rounds to a couple of houses, they headed down to the "hotel" (the new Children's hospital where you almost feel like you are in a hotel with a magnificent view of Pittsburgh.) Joey was Spiderman and was shooting his webs everywhere. He was in high gear for a grand night of make believe. He was able to finish trick or treating with the girls next door, Riley and Katie Rose.

He had a "great" night and was please with all his candy!

Jaden had been doing amazingly well this week. Pappy took them to South Park for a field trip. They fed the ducks, went exploring and best of all the went climbing "like real men". Jaden's was "sorry" that he got a little muddy. A very small price to pay for the enjoyment that was had! His blood counts on Thursday were fantastic. His body was doing a great job!

Yesterday he was moving a little slower and looked a little bit down and out. We were all expecting that a fever would win out. And so it did. At the hospital the blood work came back -- his white blood count was "zero", and had to be admitted. Poor baby. The chemo is doing it's job extremely well, knocking this baby to his knees. He is just not feeling very well and has developed sores in his mouth. We all know that yucky feeling.

Again, we ask to step up the prayers to give him strength to fight this.

Love, Grammie

Another BRIGHT ASS IDEA- skype with supah

So. I was once watching a friends blog and she had posted a video. Her exact words were,
"this could possibly be one of the worst things I've done." or maybe it was " tried." Ok.. so "exact words" might not be accurate. Get the hell over it.

SO.
I have another idea I'm testing out.

I'm going to start prefacing my 'idea posts' WITH A BIG ASS LIGHTBULB.. so that you can choose to run the other way or steel yourself and dive in with me. Seeing that lightbulb will give you that moment you might need, to in fact, steel thyself.

SO here you go. Get ta steelin...

Most of my shit has been mediocre-ly succesful so I'm aiming low and trying another idea.

" this could possibly be one of the worst things I've done."

The . arfin. best.

Have you heard of it?

You can use it to video conference with someone.

( ahem.. cough cough.. me .. ahem)

( WHERE IS THAT LIGHTBULB again?)

I would like to meet some of you.

* insert flattered "NO WAY" face.

A fake convention cruise is not in the works ( YET).. and our commune ( ba-logamy) is a long way from being built.

SIgh.

I'm itching to put a face to your blog name, oh loyal ones.
Or voice maybe. Or conversation. Whatever. Some of you are more liberal with your pics than I am. So I know your face already.

TRUE STORY:

I " met" ( called ) princess the other day over something FRIDICULOUSLY WEIRD. I do not do that shit.

I have laughed about it EVER SINCE and I am so glad I talked to her.
She has a cute ol steel magnolia southern accent AND I must've sounded like a tranny WT yankee ho.

SO.

* diving in face, holding breath

If you would like to skype with supah. I'm lining up my first night.
I'll do quick video skypes with a small list of bloggers. No more than 5 min each or so.

( if you're anonymous- we can STILL do it... be creative... hint hint.)

WHAT WILL WE TALK ABOUT:

So that we aren't staring at each other- in death silence.

I want you to ask me something.
And I'll answer.

Then I'm going to ask YOU something. ( * be ready)

You might make it onto my blog as a featured skype-cast. :)
If you do. I'll shout you out, feature you and encourage my loyals to check yo shit out. :)

I'd love to meet you.

Do not make me the nerdy girl waiting by the locker for the cool friends to appear. When they have no inention of doing so.

Whose it goinna be. Email me or comment. I'll line up a time with you. I'll also want to visit your blog: to figure out my question.

You'll have to download skype- way easy. It's also free.

xoxo

Dont' forget: All about MEme MOnday prompt BOMP CHICKA WOW WOW- inspiration point or some inspiration.. your choice

This week it's my turn to come up with next weeks All ABout MEme Monday prompt.

I'm giving it to you WAAAAY EARLY.. because you might need to enlist some help.

Enjoy!

Supah

This week we want you to either;

a: feed us some good details about you and your significant other's love life

b. take a load off and hand over your assignment to someone special

CHOICE A.

Inspiration Point

* all wink wink emoticons!

Tell me about:

1. A time you got 'caught' in the midst of inspiration point.

2. What is it about your significant other that makes your emoticon wink wink?
( push through the irritation over the dirty socks on the couch- u can do it!)

3. Do you have a funny story about a time when your saucy-time .. went array?

CHOICE B.

Inspiration Points

When I was in college I joined a sorority- which is a blog of tales all in itself. One of the great things we used to do was an exercise called Inspiration. Everyone would write down something uplifting/ complimentary about you on a piece of paper. No matter how tough as nails you were- reading what people truly enjoyed about you... was uplifting.

So that's where we want you to go this week.
Ask;

Your significant other or your BFF ( OR someone who knows you) to finish some , one or all of these phrases ( listed below) about you.

Their choice.

See if you can post it without reading it. So that it can be a inspiring surprise for next Monday.

1. I admire you for...
2. Your laugh is ....

3. It makes me smile when I see you ...

4. I love that you ...

5. Your heart is...

6. I hope that you know...

7. When we first met I ...

8. You are...

Come back and link up on Monday. * you can choose both too.. your choice.

* and please continue the prayers for Mary ( Cameron) my friend and loyal follower since my blogs inception almost.. her FIL has a failing heart , had heart pump surgery to prolong his life until he can get a new heart, he was in a drug induced coma- and they almost lost him saturday night. He is on a ventilator , still in a forced coma and there is no movement. Pray/ think thoughts.. whatever it is that you do. Pray for them .. for him.

Free FRIDAY: Small Dog Pet Vest Giveaway with Aimee Plus 3

So you died at how cute my little Ferny Fern is in her OH SO FABOO little vest? I showed her off on a post a while back. But here she is again in her 'VEST.' She's TOO COOL FOR SCHOOL.

WHO MADE THESE YOU CRY???!
YOU MUST KNOW!!
RIGHT??

ONLY THE COOLEST HANDMADE PET ACCESSORIZER TO THE STARS*!
(* star being FERNY FERN)

I'M TALKING... Accessories for cats, dogs - I suppose any pet that needs a collar, harness, vest ,leash or bed. :) *Larry the Lizard is THRILLED. GREAT STUFF.

Aimee is this awesome.lee friendly Etsian AND owner of Aimee Plus 3 who furnished my Fern with this delicious little creation. FERN HAS NOT TAKEN IT OFF SINCE I GOT IT IN THE MAIL. No joke. It sooo needs washed. But my little skinny minny GETS THE SHAKES being out in the cold .. so I keep it on her always.

It is completely quality made, not one fray string or missed stitch that I can see.

It has a little d ring loop for her leash because Aimee makes these to combat the negative effect that collars and leashes combined: have on little dogs tracheas.

Aww sweet love of pete.. NO COLLARS PLEASE!

They come in a great selection of colors/ patterns and she has many instock right now. They fit up to 20 inch chest measurements. So we're talking little dogs right now. Little dogs can sport these. Big dogs.. not so much.

Sizes vs chest and low neck measurements- all measurements are in inches.

Size Chest Low Neck

XXS 10-12 8-10

XS 12-14 11-13

S 14-16 13-15

M 18-20 16-18

I'm waiting too. My fat beagle is alll jealous of Ferns new Duds)

She does have plans to make larger ones soon, so convo her on ETsy if you're interested.

Because PetSmart.. has got NOTHING on these duds. And they are compeltely affordable. Right now it's an introductory price of 14 buckers.. plus shipping. THAT'S IT. It wont' last long so grab some up.

Aimee also offers, collars, leashes and pet beds too! For dogs and cats of all sizes!

BUT WAIT. ( I'm like the ghost of BIlly Mays )

She's also offering a 10 percent discount for all SUPAHMOMMY readers! When you order , just mention that you are using SUPAH MOMMY's discount in the COMMENTS SECTION of the order form. She'll take care of it from there.

I am SOOO ORDERING FERN MORE. PET SMART is just as expensive and barely ever fits her right! AIMEE custom made me a vest for Fern and she can do the same for you. SHe's snug as a bug in a rug. It fits HER TO THE "T".

GUESS WHAT??

You can win one.
Aimee is offering one IN STOCK vest for a giveaway on my blog.

Free FRIDAY: Art of Patrizia Doggy Night LIght Giveaway

ARt of Patrizia Night LIght GIveaway!

When my buddy Miss Mel over at

( a great original children's story Pod Cast site)

had a custom night light giveaway courtesy of Art Of Patrizia

I fell in love. My girls adore horses

so I decided to order them both a horsey night light.

This pic doesn't do it justice. It's cut off a bit.

This image too. But they're BEAUTIFUL. And very much adored .

I was so thrilled to find them in my mailbox a few weeks later and they are just as gorgeoous in person as they were viewing on line.

Best yet, THEY ARE a great size, not some mini- dinky night light. They come WITH THE NIGHTLIGHT, they are all handmade, she can do custom orders and last...

THEY ARE TOTALLY AFFORDABLE.

The price of a night light on it's own will set you back at least 5 buckers... why not add an adorable little stained glass detail for a few bucks more? ( around .. $ 15.50)

WAIT .. it gets EVEN BETTER.

WHILE I WAS ordering my two horsey's I noticed that for every 30 dollars you spend
( they are 15.50 each or so) .. you get to PICK ONE FREE!

WHAAAAA?

Supah LOves free.. and calculates it into the total cost of the order bringing the already AWESOMELY REASONABLE total down FURTHER.

I TOTALLY got a 3rd one free, no shipping charge, FREE.

( I CHOSE FROM A SELECT GROUP) I was HIGH ON NIGHT LIGHTS!

( *if you would like more than one freebie you have to put in two seperate orders totalling 30 dollars or more each)

They are just beautiful in my girls rooms and in their bathroom. I can NOW FINALLY turn the darn hall light off as they are comfortable having their horsey's watch over them. What a unique gift these would make and she has TONS O DESIGNS to choose from as well as customizable ones. If you have a PET ... I BET money she can make you one of your breed / color etc.

YOU CAN WIN ONE!

Art of Patrizia. has graciously offered this little " puppy" as a giveaway for my readers.

Want it? ( you can win it here OR she'll be happy to make another one for you: custom)

JUst visit her site. ART of PATRIZIA
Come back her and tell me what design you loved.

Free FRIDAY: What The DOG Saw Book Giveaway

TWO COPIES OF WHAT THE DOG SAW UP FOR GRABS!

From the Hachette Book Group Website:

" What is the difference between choking and panicking? Why are there dozens of varieties of mustard-but only one variety of ketchup? What do football players teach us about how to hire teachers? What does hair dye tell us about the history of the 20^th century?

In the past decade, Malcolm Gladwell has written three books that have radically changed how we understand our world and ourselves: The Tipping Point; Blink; andOutliers. Now, in What the Dog Saw, he brings together, for the first time, the best of his writing from The New Yorker over the same period.

Here is the bittersweet tale of the inventor of the birth control pill, and the dazzling inventions of the pasta sauce pioneer Howard Moscowitz. Gladwell sits with Ron Popeil, the king of the American kitchen, as he sells rotisserie ovens, and divines the secrets of Cesar Millan, the "dog whisperer" who can calm savage animals with the touch of his hand. He explores intelligence tests and ethnic profiling and "hindsight bias" and why it was that everyone in Silicon Valley once tripped over themselves to hire the same college graduate.

"Good writing," Gladwell says in his preface, "does not succeed or fail on the strength of its ability to persuade. It succeeds or fails on the strength of its ability to engage you, to make you think, to give you a glimpse into someone else's head." What the Dog Saw is yet another example of the buoyant spirit and unflagging curiosity that have made Malcolm Gladwell our most brilliant investigator of the hidden extraordinary."

Two lucky readers will recieve a copy of What the Dog Saw by Malcolm Gladwell

Letters of Intent: My resignation letter.

I'm finally linking up correctly with my lovely blog friend Foursons for her fun Friday Carnival. I'VE GOTTEN IT WRONG 34 times already. So go on over there and check it out and link up. I like to link some of my oldies that I wrote once upon a time... because for some odd reason ( it's in my blood) I LIKE TO WRITE LETTERS. YOU DON'T MIND A sloppy second again do you? RIGHT? RIGHT???!! * CRAZY BOUT TO GO POSTAL FONT

Dear Mr. DbD,

As of June 30,2008 I hereby tender my resignation as "do all" in the household. Expect to pitch in from here forward with the gusto of Michael Phelps and if you'd like clean underwear.. well then..let me introduce you to my little friend the washing machine.

I've enjoyed my time IMMENSLEY as 338's cleaning drone but the time has come to "push off" INTO new worlds. ONes that DO NOT include, mopping, brooming,vacuuming,sucking up toys in the Dyson, sweeping hairballs into your side of the bed, cleaning up leftover whiskers ( I think I just threw up a little too.) making 3 beds daily, cleaning up doggy doo doo, cleaning 4 toilets and also : REARING THREE CHILDREN.

Good luck in your endeavors and by all means; THAT IS NOT ME IN THE COMPUTER ROOM. It is a cardboard cutout. So let's just get ta cleanin.

Sincerely,

Supah. Mommy
