Wyatt was born on May 9, 2002 after a very difficult delivery. Within the first 24 hours of his life, he coded and had to be air-lifted to the NICU in Sioux Falls, SD. I was unable to accompany him. That was the one of the worst days of my life not being able to be with him. But, if he wouldn't have gone, he may not be with us today. Since then, Wyatt has had an amazing will to overcome soo many hurdles. He continues to inspire people everyday with the twinkle in his eye and infectious smile.
Our wish for Wyatt is to keep that strength and to continue building on it throughout his life.

Friday, July 2nd

This is our last day in Germany before we start our journey back to Minnesota. Wyatt woke up hungry and full of energy. Thank goodness his side effects were short lived. All in all the trip went very well and now we just need to be patient and continue working with Wyatt to ensure that he can continue to thrive and make the most of his latest procedure.
We decided to spend our last day on the Rhine River. This was one of our favorite spots in Dusseldorf during our last trip. It was a beautiful day and we decided to take a two hour trip on the river.



The tower behind Grandpa is called the Rhine Tower. This is a communication tower and was built in the late 70's. Part of the tower is open to the public and has a restaurant. Beings I am not to fond of heights, we did not venture to the top. Maybe next time?!



The bridge structures along the Rhine are amazing and look like pieces of artwork - very cool!

Once we got back from the trip on the river, we sat at an outside cafe and watched the soccer game. Wyatt loved this as well and you can see him dancing after Holland scored!



We ended the day by walking through Alt Stadt (Old Town) to do some last minute souvenior hunting. Wyatt is an amazing little boy and I feel so lucky to be his mom. He teaches me many things everyday and my wish for him is that I can do the same for him. Afterall, it is the least I can do . . . .
