2. for naps.
3. for the $20 donation that Everybody Can Play got today.

elijah nist
tomorrow on the 6:00 news here, the channel that my in-laws watch the news on is going to show an interview with the family of elijah nist.
elijah was an 8-year-old boy who lived nearby (not super close, but in my area). a couple of months ago, he passed away following complications from the h1n1 swine flu.
i plan to hole up in my room with a dvd (or deedle-dee as my daughter calls them) because just thinking about it, just typing this blog entry, i'm about to start bawling.
elijah was sick for a long time. i believe he spent at least a month in strong memorial hospital in rochester. the whole region was praying that he would pull through, and even the week before he died seemed to be showing some improvement.
in a preview for the interview, the station shows his mom saying that she misses his hugs, that he used to spontaneously just come up and hug her.
in that respect, he reminds me of my little brother.
when my brother was a little younger than that, even through that age, he would be sitting playing on the floor, and then just all of a sudden look up at one of us and tell us he loved us.
that stopped after my dad died. i miss it.
more later...
