Well today was our first "clinic" day. Everyone warned me it was bad, and they were right. I had to get my blood drawn and I had to sit in the waiting room for 3+ hours. But Doc says I'm doing great, and I get to reduce my steroids again on Friday! Because I was so good my mom said I could pick where we went for lunch and I picked Burger King. It was soooo good.
Love lil' Ben
Shaun wants to say ---Go Alabama! and Phineas and Pherb is his favorite show.
We are looking forward to a great Thanksgiving, and wish you all a great Turkey Day!
Ben & Erin

Hi Ben
It's Mrs Tammy. I don't like having my blood taken either but once it's over you feel better. I am glad you are doing so good. Dont eat too much turkey or you'll start gobbling.
Brandi says hello and keep up the good work.
Oh Brandi has a joke for you:
What time is it when an elephant sits on your fence?
Time to get a new fence.
Have a great night.

Hey Ben,
Sitting in that waiting room must have been boring. At least after all of that waiting you got to pick where you went for lunch. Have a Happy Thanksgiving, Ben! Gobble, Gobble, Gobble.
Hey Shaun,
I am so sorry that I have not said Hi to you yet. I think that you meant to say, "Go Tigers!" but that's okay. Phineas and Pherb is a cool show; I like it too. Happy Thanksgiving Shaun!
Hiya, Ben,
What a day, but what a brave pirate. I like Burger King too, the Whopper (I almost wrote Whooper--wonder why), Jr. (Better not call it the Whooper Jr. even as a joke or Megan will have a fit.) When Megan was little, I got her used to needles by playing Patti Cake with her, and when we got to the part about "Pick it with a pin..." I'd stick my fingernail in her finger really hard, so she was used to it! Thank goodness I did because she had to have allergy shots for year and was very good, just like you are.
Glad to hear you can reduce your steroids again!
Here's a knock-knock joke I've always liked just for you: Knock, knock. Who's there? Olive. Olive who? Olive you (get it? "I love you.")

Hey Ben,
I love Burger King too!! It's sound like you had a long day. Ms. Jessica is having a long day too because all my family is in town for Thanksgiving. They all say hello and they hope they all get to meet you someday. Have a good night and hopefully I will see you tomorrow. Good night! I love you!
Hey Ben...Sorry you had a rough day. I know doctors aren't much fun but sometimes they aren't so bad and they can be very nice. And look on the bright side..you got to pick whatever you wanted to eat! haha we all love to eat! Well I hope you have a better day tomorrow! Love you!
Well, Ben 3 hours in a waiting room is way toooo long! I'm so proud of you. Love the good news about the steroids. Good choice for lunch. Now you are the "king" of the pirates. I don't know about that. Can pirates become kings? ha ha ha Somebody's going to be 5 real soon!!! Could his name be Ben?
Good night "King Pirate" God loves you and so do I.
Mrs. Rita
Hi, Ben:
It is Amanda and Joe's friend, Shannon,(aka Cassidy's mom.) Sorry I have not said hello in a few days. Miss Cassidy has kept me very busy plus I am getting my house ready for the "Thanksgiving rush"
Anyway, I am glad to hear you are doing well. I hate having my blood drawn too. It is yucky! Of course, a brave pirate like you did a fantastic job. We are thinking about you and praying for you. Hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving. Eat lots of turkey!
Take Care
Shannon :)
Dear Mr. Ben...excuse me...Mr. Pirate Ben...Sir..!:
Urgh..urgh.!!...show all these land lovers that you are the toughest pirate hombre on the 7 seas. Never give up..never surrender!
The Lord bless you and keep you.
OK, Ben--after I read Mrs. Rita's note I thought I'd better write and tell you there's a very old and very famous song, from THE PIRATES OF PENZANCE, a funny singing play, that is called "I Am the Pirate King," which I will sing to you when we get there, which is only a week from today!!! Even though Megan always says, "Please, don't sing, Mom!" She gave me a Flair button that talks about how I like to break into song, though, which was pretty nice.
Love, Megan's Mom, Peg
Hi Ben!
Sounds like you've been doing really well this week. Sorry about yesterday at the clinic though. I next time goes better.
Thanksgiving is tomorrow! I am sure you'll get to see lots of your family and play with cousins. Here are some Thanksgiving jokes you can share with everyone: (oh, by the way, you're jokes were super funny. Send more when you can).
q: Why did they let the turkey join the band?
a: Because he had the drumsticks
q: Why can't you take a turkey to church?
a: Because they use such FOWL language
q: What did the mama turkey say to her naughty son?
a:If your papa could see you now, he'd turn over in his grav-y!
ha! ha! I am ALMOST as funny as you.
Have a great holiday, bud. I'll be playing with Aunt Mego and Uncle Mikey.
Love, Shannon
Hola Benchu!
Awesome jokes!
here's another one:
there are only 2 muffins in the oven at 400*F. one muffing says: Uf! It's hot in here! and the other says....Oh my God! a talking muffing!!!!!
hahahahhahahahahahhaa
Wii LUV u TONS!
We think about you all the time!
tell your mom and dad we say hello!
Happy gobble, gobble, gobble day.
Hey there Ben. I'm glad that Peg knows about the king pirate! When you learn it, would you teach it to me? Eats lots of turkey tomorrow and all the other good stuff. Do you like cranberry sauce? I like it now, but when I was young like you, it was right there with apple sauce!! yuck!!
Good night brave pirate. God loves you and so do I. Later gator!
Mrs. Rita
did I said muffing? I meant muffin!
We hope you had a good day today!
Hi Ben......
I wanted to wish U, Shaun, mommy and daddy a very HAPPY TURkEY DAY. It is not tru what they say.... U can eat as much turkey as you want without turning into one. I was happy that u came to school today for a visit. All of your teachers and friends were so excited to see u. I hope to see you soon Pirate Ben.
Love,
Ms. Lynz
Hiya, Ben,
Wanted to say we're thinking of you today. We'll soon be in the car with our Chihuahua Pip on the way to Minneapolis (it only takes an hour and a half) to visit Megan's brother Chad, his wife Juliana, and their baby Anja for the day. Hope we don't hit any turkeys crossing the road, because there are large flocks of them all over Wisconsin since the DNR brought them back over the years. We had 16 turkeys parading down our condo driveway one time and another time there was a mother and six babies up on the roof of the condo across from us jumping off the roof onto the lawn, one a time. What a sight!!!!
Poor Megan, Mike, Kyle and Lauren got hung up in a traffic jam on the Interstate by Baton Rouge yesterday afternoon for TWO hours on their way to Houston, a five hour trip usually!!! Thank goodness Sara is taking care of the dogs and birds so they didn't have to take them with them. It's awfully nice of her.
Love, Megan's mom, Peg xoxoxoxoxox
Happy, turkey day!! I'm soooo sorry I didn't see you at school yesterday. I didn't know you were going to be there. Can you smell the turkey cooking?Eat lots and have bunches of fun!! love you lots! Mrs Rita
Hi Ben! Happy Thanksgiving! I'm in Houston for the weekend visiting my husband, Mike's family. I hope you are having a great day with your family. I bet your house will be full of people who love you! Don't forget to put applesause on Shaunee's head, 'kay? Haha :). Maybe put some stuffing on top of it and some turkey, too! I bet he'd like that, huh? Not a bit! It was really great to see you the other night, and I wanted to tell you that I am thankful for YOU!!! You are super great and I love you, buddy.
See you soon,
Megan
Hi Ben
Finally we have found the way to send a message to you. We hope your Grandma passed on to you the website we found with all the pirate stuff that you could print and then color or play with. We are thinking of you alot and still praying for your miracle. We will keep watching all the conversations on the blog. So glad you are reducing some of the medicines. You sure are being a strong brave pirate! Love and kisses Steve and Lynn
