Maki…I don’t even know how you made this…I guess they are teaching you something in school after all. 🙂 And it is so good to know the sloths have someone on their side.
Maki-may God’s strength be with you young man. When we met you were such a young lad and now you are a strong young man. We love your dad a day will keep praying that he fully recovers – which we know he will. We love you even though you could not pick us from a crowd. Know how loved you are – especially from Jesus. Love Shannon Micah Max and Jordan Irvine
Maki – just so you know we currently have 4 different kinds of ice cream in the freezer waiting for you. love, aunt sue

I’m a friend of Alli’s, and my family and I are in daily prayers for your dad. This has got to be the most awesome thank you note I’ve ever seen! I bet you’ll get lots of snacks! LOL! Have a safe trip to NZ. While you’re there, know that God (with all the doctors’ help) will take care of your dad.

Hey Maki —
Really cool graphic and copy! I’ve met your sister but not you so when things smooth out maybe you guys can all come over and we can feed you lots of snacky food.
Hang in there!
PS: I like root beer and plain Lays

Hey Maki — I’d imagine that sloths eat cheese pizza too. But the sloth would have to wrestle me for the bag of Lays BBQ potato chips. That’s my fave. Have a really fun time in NZ. Do they have Dr. Pepper there?

Hi Maki! I really love what you made! I say like Allison; it’s good to know someone is taking care of the sloths – especially their space training 🙂 You are so clever – and so very brave. Thinking of you lots thgough this difficult time. Wish I was there with you! Have a safe journey to NZ. I am sure by the time you are back your dad will have built some strength. In the meantime there is Skype! Lots of love from tante Helene <3
