Mama introduced Meredith the library computers last week… Grandmommy opened a whole new world to her. She was a sad girl when I told her we needed to head home.

Thank you for the prayers for my family. They have been much needed, and appreciated. These last few days have been some of the most difficult of my life. Monday, I was home. It was just a normal day for our family. I *so* miss those days. Tuesday, we went for a tour of the chemo lab and met with…
Transformers
When you think you’ve seen it all, this zooms down the interstate: Before you ask why I was snapping pictures and driving, my mom took these pictures from the passenger seat on the way to her doctor visit. Simply amazing….we’re not Transformers fans but this was neat!
Perks…
Well, we’re looking for the bright side of life right now. Emma, found it in the gift basket my mama’s work had delivered last week:
A Little Happy…

This week has been so full of doctor appointments. Yesterday, we met the chemo doctors. Today, mom had surgery to place the catheter that will deliver the chemo meds to her body. It was hard to see her going through so much. Tomorrow, is the first chemo therapy treatment. I know that it’s not a cure for my mom. I…
Jonathan
Yep. There’s not much to say except that this is a picture I took last week on a day when Jon decided to dress himself. I made these shorts for him some time back. He loves them. There is pretty much nothing else to say except that I’m going to tuck this picture away safely for a date some time…
So, He Needs Glasses
Courtney mentioned last week she thought Matthew was having a hard time reading. I decided it was time for an eye exam. I neglected to mention it to Matt until the last minute. I felt a little bad for him…just the mention of an eye exam made his eyes water. 😀 As it turns out, just like his papa and…
This Makes Me Smile
These are my favorite moments in life. The times when nothing really out of the ordinary is happening, but rather, the every day-really sweet moments happen. The things that most people overlook. The unplanned. The routine. Life is *beautiful*.
Another Driver
Yikes…THREE of our children are drivers!! Unbelievable. I’m convinced they are still three years old. I still feel too young to have children this age– especially three. (Don’t blow this for me by telling me you can see all the little lines on my face and gray hair….) I can’t stop time, and here I am, and here he is….…
Our Latest Journey
Mama taking the barium for her CT scan Certainly not the yummiest thing, but she managed to drink it. Yuck. Pictures of the beautiful aquarium at the cancer center. It is positioned in the middle of the waiting area….it’s such a beautiful thing to watch these fish as you wait.
My Mama- Update
“But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us. We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed. We always carry around in our body the death of Jesus, so that the…
