Everyone knows Haven has some friends that come to visit her a couple times a week. Dad and Jeannie have been working on this project for about the past 6 months. They were able to get a $500 grant for one of them to come. So Leah comes once a week for the next 2 months. And Haven's mega best friend is Lauren. She absolutely loves Lauren and we trust her with Haven so much that Kris is able to leave the house and get stuff done.
When our time was up for Dad and Jeannie's offer of paying for Lauren we told Haven that Lauren couldn't come anymore. Haven was so upset (we've never seen her like that about someone not family) that Kris and I had a talk and we'd just have to figure out how to keep Lauren at one day a week, even if it was giving up other items.
Dad and Jeannie called Kris knowing Haven absolutely loves Lauren and have offered to keep paying one day a week for Lauren. We are SO EXTREMELY HAPPY! Haven can't wait for it to be Lauren day. Every day she asks if her friend is coming over. She gets all dressed up and stands in front of the mirror forever, checking her hair and clothes.
THANK YOU SO MUCH!
Seeing Haven smiling and having fun makes our day happier.
