About Me:

I'm a very happy and delightful person. I love spending time with my family. I am active and affectionate. I am strong and inspiring. I love all living things and I am easy to please. My mom thinks I am very easy to love. I bring joy, light, and love to our family. I am like a sweet sticky substance that bonds our family together. On July 6th, 2009 When I wss only 13 months old, I was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia. I started Chemo Therapy the next day. I'm not going to lie.. it is nasty stuff, but it is saving my life. I am doing my best to not let it slow me down. I love life. I have a lot yet to experience and I am always reaching.

Look at me now

Oh my ... You are so beautiful and delightful!

Such a princess.
It's hard to believe you are capable of what you did yesterday. You know what I'm talking about. You locked yourself in my room, ( accidentally) Then you refused to try and open the door for me. We both know you can do it. You just turn the little button. Instead, you decided to remove your diaper and leave a present for me on the floor. As I tried to get the door open you decided to " clean it" for me. By the time I found the ladder, propped it to the window, tore the scream out and climbed in to rescue you from yourself... well, you had already created a masterpiece for me. You were so proud. You smiled from ear to ear. " See Mommy. I kean da poop! " I was frazzled as I looked around the room and realized how much work I had ahead of me, but you are so dang cute that I couldn't get angry. I just picked you up, stuck you in the shower with toys and began the disaster clean up. ( I'd been meaning to shampoo the carpet anyway)
Afterwards, you were begging for a walk. Although it was sprinkling, we went anyway. You didn't mind. You were just happy to be outside.
The kids have their last day of school tomorrow. You will love having them home during the day. We are going to have a good summer. We'll make up for last summer. You are feeling good now and I plan on having lots of fun with you and the kiddos!
Well, better get to bed.
Love you Muffin

Oh goodness. I am currently wrestling with you. You want to suck on the dog treats in front of them instead of just givig it to them. I don't know how to convince you that it's gross. It's yummy to them, so it must be yummy for us -right? WRONGO.
Yesterday was another day at clinic. You were happy to see Robert, and Dr. Wright. You got to see Oliver the little Yorkie and give him a treat. You braved another port access and then met a little boy your age named Dominic. He has a tumor in his cheek and was awaiting an MRI. Hopefully it is an isolated tumor and hasn't spread. You are doing a little too good at tolerating your meds so the Doc bumped the dose of your Methotrexate up. I don't like it, but we have to do what it takes to keep you well.
A couple of days ago you went to the aquarium with Dad. I was at the school, but you must have had fun because you won't stop jabbering about it. Turtles, snakes, fishies, penguins,washing hands, fishies swimming , sharks, and on and on you go.
Lately you have been hooked on Mickey Mouse playhouse and 101 Dalmatians.
The weather has been crazy lately, but when it's decent you are begging to play outside. I love it!
You are going to the property with Dad and Mikayla tomorrow. You'll spend a whole night and a day without me. I'll join you guys with the boys on Friday. It's going to be hard on me, but you will be busy having a good time with Dad. He's all about fun.
Well, I have bills to sort and pay, a house to clean and a camping trip to pack for. I'll write again soon. Love you.
