Treatment weeks are quiet on my end, but this was also the last treatment, at least for a couple months. As soon as I could (really, a little before I could) I jumped back into sweet, ordinary life.

At a moment's notice, Amanda agreed to take me to treatment. In addition to the obvious and maybe not obvious hard of the day, my arrival time meant that we left our house at 5 AM. Then after she returned me home, she had to do the 5-hour drive to school. I was so grateful for her sacrifice!

Light...I was able to see it and appreciate it.

First day of Lent!
May our mourning increase so that our joy may deepen.
May we groan more so that we would pray more.
May our sadness ignite our celebration.
And may all of this result in blessings that are too big and too obvious to miss.

Avery and Jack are handling most of the wedding planning, but sometimes Avery gets my opinion, advice, thoughts. Its been such a joy to talk about and anticipate!

The wind was so strong overnight that the highschool lost power so Aiden had the day off.
Aiden and I met up with some of the TBQ team to do Go Karts. The kids (and Colombo ;) had a blast!
Avery and I snuck in our mexican date at a new-to-us place, before she and her dad went to a concert last minute. Love this girl...such a joy!

Aiden's soccer team is officially outside for the season. It was a little chilly but the sun felt good. And he played well
We took advantage of being all together and grabbed dinner on the way home. I don't take for granted having a relationship with our kids. Its a really, really special thing.
Yay for a break from treatments! I've been having to do iron infusions and while I'm there I think about you. (Prayers appreciated while we try to figure out why my iron has been so low - colonoscopy here I come!)
