Colin's 3rd Birthday

Colin turned 3 today!
It was a really great day.  The party was at the park that's within a 10 minute walking distance from Timmy's facility, so he got to come.  It was really cute.  Last week my mom was visiting him and asking him if he wanted to pick out a present on toyrus.com and he looked at his 'yes' card.  He wanted to pick out a game so that he could play with Colin, so he picked out 'Hungry Hungry Hippos.'  He also got Colin The Muppet Movie, so they can watch it together too.  Timmy was very specific, he wanted that game, and the wrapping paper to be green, so of course my mom went and got those things, and she brought it back to the facility so Timmy could help wrap it.  When they were doing the card Timmy had a huge smile on his face when the pen was in his hand ( his left since his right hand isn't as controlable as his left) when asked to do a 3 on the card he got a huge smile and started laughing because he was trying so hard and did a little of a backwards 'c' :)
Today when we got to the park I had the present and I told Timmy , in his ear since it was a secret, that I had the present and Colin was going to open it.  He started to smile and laugh.  It was so cute how excited he was that he got Colin a present.  Last year was tough since he wasn't able to leave the facility yet, so he had to miss it.  This year was really fun since he got to be there. He even got a taste of some frosting from the 'Caillou' cake.
Yesterday the anonymous donor dropped off the $10,000 donation! We now have enough for the deposit for Dr. De Fina, but we still need to raise $75,000 so please spread the word about the fundraisers coming up.  One is this Tuesday at the Los Gatos Pizza My Heart between 4&9 pm if you go in and say Hope Culture sent you, 30% of the proceeds will go to Timmy and Hope Culture to help put on the Benefit concert on October 27th at the Rio Theatre, which will be amazing! The bands are all really good!  The bracelts are for sale on the right side of the page.  If you live close to us, we can arrange a time to drop it off ( just email me friendsoftimmyhatch@hotmail.com), but if you would rather order through Pay Pal, I will send it to you :)
Thank you everyone who keeps Timmy in their thoughts and prayers, who spread the word for us, and who read our updates.  It means so much to us!  We tell Timmy all the time that he has thousands of people praying for him.  Thank you!
