Aaron is still playing his X-box and hating bed rest. But he had some diversion today even after the visit from the Patriots when various military officials came by to visit troops, and he enjoyed visiting with them. Also, I forgot to mention that on Monday, Mississippi Governor Haley Barbour and Mississippi's First Lady Marsha Barbour came to visit Aaron and Kelly. Aaron worked on Governor Barbour's gubernatorial campaign in 2003, and it was a great experience for him. The Governor brought along Ryan Annison and Joe Cloyd, both friends of Aaron's from the campaign who, I believe, now work on the Governor's staff in Jackson. Aaron really enjoyed talking to all of them, and we really appreciate them taking time out of their extremely busy schedules to spend some time with Aaron and Kelly. I know it brightened his spirits. Probably even more than meeting Miss America. Very probably.
Please pray tonight that Aaron will be able to sleep well tonight and that tomorrow will provide him with some entertainment so that the bed rest is more bearable. Thanks.
