Hey Blackwell Family,

You were absolutely wonderful at NATTAP. Your family is amazing. For those of you who weren't there, Jordan and Cameron presented one day and the entire Blackwell family spoke another day. In both cases they had to turn people away from the door because the sessions were full to overflowing! Although I couldn't be there due to schedule conflicts elsewhere in the conference, I had so many people tell me the Blackwells were funny, informative, touching and incredibly helpful to those who heard them speak in gaining perspective. I hope this is the beginning of many, many more speaking engagements to come for the Blackwells.

This family lives what they teach, they are an example of what can be done in spite of challenges. I'm grateful and awed just to know them!

Hey Kristi!

Wonderful to see you there as well. Myself, I thought it was a great conference and it was pretty fun to see "everyone" out there... You are always so kind to us! You are the best!

Please be sure to send me the "stuff" for your blog and etc!

Have a great one.

Eric

Thanks, Kristi,
You are always so kind. We had a great time at NATTAP and enjoyed meeting so many people. I personally was overwhelmed by the reaction to the boys' presentation as well as our family one. It was touching to me to hear Eric speak for the first time publically about dealing with the kids' diagnoses and to hear Cam and Jordan tell their thoughts- leaving their prepared notes enough times to make me a nervous mom!
The only thing that could have been better would have been having had time to hear YOU speak!
