The shirt colors are black and a sand color. The sand color is the same color that the soldiers wear under their uniform. Below are the graphics for both colors and the front left chest graphic. I only put one of the left chest graphics up because they look the same.

CPT Ferris Butler
Chester, MD

Army CPT Ferris Butler was deployed with the 10th Mountain Division to Iraq when he was left a double amputee after an IED explosion in the Sunni Triangle on December 21, 2006. While preparing to return from a mission that had taken CPT Butler and his platoon into one of the most dangerous sectors along the Euphrates River, his HUMVEE ran over a bomb, destroying the vehicle and causing him serious injuries.

Still wanting to believe he would be okay, CPT Butler continued issuing orders to secure the area, knowing that the ones responsible for the attack were most likely watching their handiwork unfold. Transported first to the Army hospital in Ballad, CPT Butler endured what would be the first of 54 surgeries to deal with his injuries. Later airlifted to Landstuhl, Germany and finally to Walter Reed, CPT Butler spent 2 years there enduring surgeries which included the amputation of both of his legs, and intensive rehabilitation.

CPT Butler enjoys spending time with his wife, Laura whom he met at Walter Reed while he was a patient and Laura was volunteering there. They married in October 2009 and are looking forward to living near both of their families in Eastern Maryland, where their “roots are grounded”.

CPT Butler would like to express his gratitude and let those helping to make his specially adapted home a reality know that the uncertainty and daunting task of trying to find accessible housing is no longer overwhelming him. He is focused now on his future, and the freedoms and comfort his accessible home will offer him while he, “transitions back to normalcy”.

As for the Seminar Laugh Your Way to A Better Marriage I really enjoyed it. I laughed and had a lot of Aha moments. God has given each women and man different coping tools and we must learn eachothers tools in order to keep peace in a marriage. Also I would like to thank the volunteers that watched the kiddo’s while we were in the Seminar. I was able to pay attention and not focus on Sarah. Oh yes and before I forget we had Worship this morning and my sweet princess sang along with us as we sang…..”Open the eyes of my heart Lord, I want to see you”. The most amazing things is to hear your child worship our amazing God.

Here are a couple of photo’s I took while we were there.

Below is a clip from youtube about the “Tale of the Two Brains” . Gungor discusses how women and men differ.

As for my sweet princess she turned two and a half the other day. We are beginning potty training this week and it should be fun We checked out the Child Developmental Center on Monday. I will be taking her there three days a week just in the AM. I can honestly say I am looking forward to the comissary by myself Sarah really enjoys the care that is offered on post. The classes I have been taking have childcare offered while you are in the class and Sarah loves them.

Sarah’s speech has developed in so many ways. Her vocb. is endless and she says new words everyday and loves to sing along with tons of songs. Right now her favorite band is The Laurie Berkner Band. She still takes my breathe away and has been doing much better at sleeping at night.

Recently we had a visit from my in-laws and we had a great time. Sarah enjoys having people stay with her. The morning after the in-laws left Sarah was asking for them. When we told her they had to go home she asked us about her Uncle Caleb. I bet she will be surprised to see her Uncle Caleb in a couple of weeks.

I will try my hardest to keep everyone posting but just know things are very BUSY around here and it will slow down soon (praying)

Thank you all for your continued support and prayers for our family. God Bless.

This first video is of her singing our new song. We made it up one day in the car. Usually she goes through a whole list of names but you can tell the ball had her attention more than me. Sorry my singing isn’t that great and of course the mircophone is right next to the person holding the camera…Sorry but I think it is still cute.

This one is a longer video. She is telling me her letters. We just bought these letters today so she was not use to them and you can tell. They are a lot smaller and not as bold as the other ones. She does know all of her letters beside N, M, L and sometimes she knows Y but she knows the rest of the uppercase letters. I am so proud of her and she has come a long way.

This last video is pretty delayed and I apolgize to her Grandma but I just got around to uploading all of the videos. This video is from when we first moved to Kansas and we had family visiting. Sarah was being such a ham and decided she was going to walk up and down the stairs while the four us counted. At one point Grandma Pearl started talking to Me and Sarah caught her so she peeked through the rails and said “Pearl” then headed back down the stairs so we all could start over. I tell she is a turkey!!

Here is a picture of Gege, Sarah and I on Mother’s day. We had a great time with Gege and can’t wait to see her again in October.

Allen started work on Monday and seems to enjoy the people he is working with. I started PWOC on Tuesday and really enjoyed it and look forward to the path that God will lead me on while in Kansas. God bless.
