streeter family skip to main skip to sidebar streeter family jared laura dallin andrew and anna friday may 28 2010 so i couple of weeks ago i posted on fb that colored recipe cards saved my life and i have decided to explain here two of dallin s teachers have had a color coded system in their classes to let the kids know how their behavior is for the day green good yellow warning and so on well i have finally put this in to practice at home and it has been amazing i went a little further though because i wanted to encourage better behavior and not just be happy with good so the boys can earn a purple card which means that they have done something to help me or they have been playing together well or whatever i decide is purple card worthy behavior the boys really love earning their purple cards and if one of them earns it then the other wants a job to do to earn a purple card too all it took was a piece of printer paper that i folded to make an envelope to hold their cards and they each have a set of colored recipe cards they get to start the day on green which means good then yellow is their warning blue is time out and then pink is another punishment suited to the crime committed and of course the coveted purple card i was feeling like i was constantly yelling with no results prior to starting this and immediately it worked to stop a lot of yelling dallin especially likes the feedback to know how his behavior is for the day moment it might just be because he is already used to it from school i started to wonder if the boys would want more than just a purple card for the good behavior i e treats prizes but they really seem to take pride in knowing that they are doing good and don t require anything more than just that good feeling which is such a great lesson posted by streeter family at 4 08 pm 2 comments wednesday may 19 2010 well for those of you that know about jared s heart condition part of his follow up care is yearly ct scans to check up on the repair work he had done in 2007 jared had his ct scan in march and last friday may 14 we meet with a vascular surgeon to discuss the results the good news is that jared doesn t have to immediate surgery the bad news is that he will need more surgery in 6 12 months and it will be big and complicated once he has the surgery it will probably involve a heart surgeon and vascular surgeon apparently jared has some kind of undetermined condition that is causing a dissection along the entire length of his aorta and in the arteries above his heart the easiest way to explain what it means is that the inner most layer of his aorta has pulled away from the middle muscular layer creating two pathways for blood flow the good news is that his internal organs are receiving adequate blood flow the bad news is that the blood flowing toward the middle muscular layer is dilating his arteries and weakening them this dilation and weakening of the arteries leaves him susceptible to aneurysms which is life threating if they burst most people have an aorta 1 inch in diameter jared s is about 2 inches please keep us in your prayers the surgeon said jared has youth on his side since when they normally do this kind of surgery it is on someone twice his age but we are still scared and uncertain as to what the future looks like for our family posted by streeter family at 11 39 pm 4 comments sunday march 21 2010 the boys got the jazz bear and the jazz player s autograph on this poster notice dallin was sure to use plenty of tape to make sure it didn t fall off the wall this is dallin with his teacher mr davis from silvercrest elementary spencer was in mr davis s class also so it was great to have him come and suppport this great cause all the kids really love mr davis when he arrived you would have thought a rock star was at the fundraiser since anna is so bald people asked me if she had shaved her head too i just told them she is refusing to grow hair in support of spencer you will notice that there is a bounce house in the background it was an amazing event i could not believe how many businesses were willing to help by donating stuff like all the catering and items for the silent auction the fundraiser was even on the channel 2 news last night and they reported that the event had raised over 10 000 it was amazing to see what the people in our ward could do to help this great family here are dallin nathan my little bro and andrew posing at home with their team super spence t shirts nathan and andrew were not ready to take the plunge and shave their heads for spencer i am so proud of dallin and that he put his friend before his vanity posted by streeter family at 10 54 am 2 comments saturday march 20 2010 here is that last pic of dallin with hair the boys posing with jazz player wesley matthews he was kind enough to come to the fundraiser and sign autographs for the kids dallin even wore his hair in a mohawk spencer gooch style prior to getting his head shaved this is the helicopter that the jazz player and the jazz bear arrived in for the fundraiser the boys didn t have the patience to wait in line for the jazz bear after waiting in line for the jazz player posted by streeter family at 11 12 pm no comments labels super spence vs cancer fundraiser thursday february 18 2010 apparently all pics are posting in opposite order they are chosen okay so this is after the baptism at the luncheon with cousins dallin is opening some belated birthday gifts from family jared with andrew and dallin before the baptism what cute brothers dallin with uncle spencer posted by streeter family at 12 52 am 2 comments here are pics from dallin s friend party the kids had fun decorating cupcakes much easier for me too dallin got a lot of new toys from his friends and had a great night celebrating with his friends posted by streeter family at 12 23 am no comments wednesday february 17 2010 okay so these pics were posted totally out of order but you get the idea this is dallin s birthday party at home he was a little disappointed you could tell with the gifts because nothing was really cool to an eight year old clothes and books and scriptures we knew he would get toys from the friend birthday party so we weren t too worried about him going without and really christmas was just a month ago how many toys does one kid need anna being such a good helper dallin loves getting gift cards he even loves just having one even if it doesn t have any money on it this one does though courtesy of great grandma gloria my mom s mom the books the 39 clues were recommended to us by a girl in dallin s class at the school book fair she loves them i am really trying to get dallin interested in reading chapter books instead of picture books so far not having too much luck we are reading these at bedtime but i am reading them to him so far i like them we will see how he feels about them later so far it is hard to tell posted by streeter family at 11 14 pm no comments those that know me well know that i have high expectations for myself my kids how clean my home is my cooking the holidays just about everything well having a son with adhd odd and his therapist thinks some kind of mental processing problem along the lines of aspberger s syndrome has a tendency to dash and sometimes destroy these expectations leaving me feeling frustrated read angry and sometimes not as kind to him as i should be read yells a lot adhd impacts every interaction you have with your child from the moment they get up or won t get up to getting dressed for school or won t get dressed for school eating breakfast brushing teeth or not brushing teeth to finding their backpack and homework or well you get the idea it impacts every interaction your child has with other children at school sometimes these are not as good as they could be because of this i have often had a mental pity party read more than i should have for myself when i see the way i expected things to be for me with other mothers and children i also feel bad for dallin when i see other kids having friendships that are how i expected things to be for my kids as they got older and had friends well my perspective on how things are expected to go has changed this month because of a friend of dallin s at church and school that was diagnosed with a brain tumor and began chemotherapy yesterday at the tender age of 7 this family in our ward is going through something i am sure they never expected to happen to their son spencer and yet they are handling it in the most amazing way holly spencer s mom even has the time and energy to blog about their journey through this experience how she finds the time and emotional energy she has two other kids to be a mom be up at primary children s with spencer be a wife and find time to do all the other things that life requires of us is beyond me when jared went through his heart surgery i felt like i was walking through a thick fog most of the time so how she can think clearly enough to write about and take pictures to document this is beyond me i am posting a link on my blog to hers if you would like to follow along caution you will need tissues lots posted by streeter family at 1 27 pm 1 comment labels expectations and confessions sunday january 24 2010 well these pics posted in the opposite order above is the end of her cupcake she was so upset when it fell apart she wouldn t eat any more she was so dainty eating it she is the only one of my kids that didn t required a bath after their first birthday posted by
