Enjoying each day...

We are enjoying each day. January 3 I have my 1st Chemo treatment of 4, the treatments will be 21 days apart. I am thankful to have Christmas and David Alexanders 6th birthday without treatments. I will also be done before David and William's 4th birthdays. That is nice. Very nice.

David Alexander is starting to read and is very excited by it. He has his first loose tooth. David loves school so much. Today at the school cafeteria he told his friends while trying to lift my shirt " You have got to see what happened to my mom's breast." Boys !!- he thinks the stitches of my unboob are so cool.

William has gone to his new school since the 4th of December. He loves it so much. He is singing all kinds of songs and today he was weather watcher. So cool. He is funny, loving and so strong willed.

David Randall is doing good at work - new two year contract, bonuses etc. Still can be stressful. He has been busy fixing things around the house. I feel very blessed to have such a loving and committed man by my side. I only thought that I married well!!!!!

I am doing really good. I have great range of motion. I can not remember when I took a pain reliever last. I am also getting comfortable when I am sleeping. I do miss sleeping on my left side . I am attending two different support groups. Unfortunately, I am not alone. Pink Ribbon Cowgirls is a support group for women under 40 there are 60 members in the Austin area. The other group at the church has much older women but they are very maternal and nurturing.

All things considered we are doing well. I appreciate all the cards, phone calls and emails but especially the prayers. I feel so blessed by the fact that I have people and churches across the nation praying for me and my sweet boys. Thank you so much!
