Wow I have had a very big Christmas - when I got back from Sydney it was almost Christmas Day. I went to a Chritsmas party at Movieworld thanks to the Starlight Foundation. They had a great street parade and all the kids were given a lolley bag at the end of the night. On Christmas day I woke up and opened my Christmas presents
- I got a Garfiled 2 DVD from Dad, a portable CD player from grandma JoJo and as well from the Starlight Foundation I got a wonderful stereo CD Player and Radio - From my Aunty and Uncle I got a Snowman mug and $40.00 and from grandma JoJo I also got $40.00 (I'm rich!!) Mum gave me a snorkel and goggles set and my friends Lauren and Emily gave me a Sponge Bob CD ROM (But my dad has lost it) and from CJ and Greg I got a special mug with mints in it.
Just before Christmas I met the Lord Mayor of Brisbane at the Variety Club Christmas party at the Convention Centre - (we know each other from way back) - and I met his wife Lisa - I don't know her from way back though. His name is Campbell Newman and he said he would come to the concert Yayyy!!
I also met Gretel Kileen from Big Brother - she was very nice and had her photo with me.(Sorry about the photo my dad was so excited he couldn't keep the camera still)
After Christams Dad and I went to Family Camp at Alexandra Headlands - we go there every year and it was lovely to see my friends again. I told everyone about my concert and they gave me a donation which was really nice. We had a Pirate theme for New Years Eve and here are some of my friends Paul, Glen and Jacob.
I have been trying to walk more by myself and my goal is to be up on my legs by the time of the concert.My other goal is that God will give me the confidence I need to visit schools and ask for their help with my concert, that I wont have any operations and that I will not get sick before September 22, 2007.Mum came back from Japan where she was visiting my sister and she bought me and my Dad back lots of very special presents.Please say your prayers for me and my dad as things start to rev up for Beneath the Stars - Songs of Hope and Joy. Cya James.
