7 years ago on July 25th 2004
we were up with Noah at Primary Childrens Hospital after a near drowning
accident that required him to be resesitated and flown up to
Primary Children's by Life Flight Helicopter!
Miraculously after just one night in the hospital he was able to come home
with seemingly no side effects from the experience.
When he got home from the hospital we celebrated his very first "Happy Day"!
Because it was a very happy day for all of us
knowing it could have had a very different outcome.
We came up with the name "Happy Day"
because Noah associated every cake with a birthday,
but could not say birthday so he would always just say "Happy Day"
Every year since that day we have celebrated his Happy Day with a cake and presents!
Spoiled little kid, but we are really so happy he is still with us,
and it is a day to celebrate that!
7 years later standing by a life flight helicopter just like the one he rode in!
Even taking a turn at pretending to fly it!
One of these days Dakota is going to be mad that Noah seems to have two Birthdays.
For now he has not figured it out yet.
