Picking Up A Finger

We all have heard our moms say "I wish you would lift a finger around here". Well we have never felt that way about Josh because as you know it would be hard to find a harder working young man than him. But we have been thinking lately I wish that you could lift a finger around here!
Well guess what, Josh is lifting his pointer finger on his left hand, and giving the bird on his right hand!!!! hahaha We are so excited about this and feel like it is a wonderful start to moving our hands. They are very small movements but they are moving.
Keep up the prayers because we feel of them and they are working! We love you all.

Way to go Josh!!! I have found that the "bird" is quite handy sometimes!! (don't tell chad I wrote that) Anyway we are always checking on your blog and getting updates!! Chad had to speak in sacrament a while back and he spoke about you and your great attitude and how you seem to be the one lifting everyone up around you (maybe he can talk about lifting the middle finger in his next talk...just to keep people on their toes) Keep up the great work, you are in our hearts and prayers, always. My boys ask about you all the time.
Cheers,
Chad and Kelli Booth

Joshua, old news I know, but I'm new at this blog stuff and I don't know how else to send you a message!! Hey, I want to tell you what a pleasure (and blessing) it was to visit you the other day. I can't imagine the hard days that you must have on occassion, but I hope you realize the good you are doing for those around you. Bryan (my brother in law) and I were both edified and lifted from the visit. You truly are an inspiration and a means for many to have much more meaningful and deep conversations with our Father in Heaven. Keep plugging away, and tell your Mom to tell the truth on this blog!! That a finger move is nothing...that you are shaking people's hands when they walk in, scratching your head, and rubbing your chest!! Hang in there chief and know that someday you will be able to give me a game in B-ball, but not like you could before anyways!!!! Love ya Brother.
