Hip Hip Hooray!


Today is a happy day for my father-in-law and our family.  The results of his lymph node test came back negative!!!  For this news I am thrilled and grateful. A tribute is in store for a wonderful man whom I have loved longer than I knew my own father...a man who is kind, gracious and loving....a man more generous than anyone I have ever known....a man I am so thankful to call "Dad". 

Happy Negative Nodes Day Dad!  I love you.

Extra Extra Read all about it!

"How's your blog coming?"  I have heard this question for the past year or so and my answer has always been, "There's no time!"  BUT here she be!!  Not sure what I am doing or what I am planning to post, but, by cracky, it is up and running.  (Or at least I think it is.)  Look at me go!!  Call me crazy!  Call me tech savvy!  Call me whatever you want...just provide me with some adult conversation.

The 3 boys and I played outside for most of the day.  E, the eldest and I have had our share of quarrels lately and it is beginning to take a toll.  Again today I vowed, "NO MORE!"  I am hoping to stick with it this time. 
Motherhood proves to be the most challenging part of my life sending me into much self-reflection.  Scary when you see the part of yourself you least like in your child.

Wondering if I will tell anyone about this blog, or just keep it all hush-hush.  Takes a lot of courage for me to put myself out there sometimes.
