Finally...I'm posting

I have been assuming that not many people blog anymore - since facebook is the "thing" and I'm the only person not on facebook. But I was told to blog more often by someone I didn't even know checked my blog (Hi Cloeen). :) I'm glad to hear it! We are still here and doing well. The kids are growing like crazy, Chris's work hours aren't AS bad as they started out and he seems to be enjoying work. His commute is a bummer - not to mention the two weeks he will be in Mexico coming up. We enjoy our "daddy days" so weekends are special. 

E starts kindergarten in a few weeks. I'm relieved that he got in to a nearby charter school, but shocked at the price of uniforms. I'm excited and dreading him being gone for 7 hours each day. T will start up his "school" also. It's only a total of 4 hours a week but he needs it and LOVES it. His speech is progressing each day. Just last night he counted to ten! He's behind but will catch up. Oh and miss M. What a doll. She's got all of us wrapped around her little chubby fingers. She's "army crawling" all over the place. She uses her head as a weapon. SO, watch out - says my fat lip today!

I'm doing fine, really. I watch others going through rough trials that I would consider worse then mine. So I count my blessing. But - it's taking some time to understand my "new" self. My moods are very different and oh, the exhaustion. Blah! It's hard to explain, but I get "confused" sometimes and have a little anxiety that I've never had before. Some days it's just better that I stay home. As far as treatment - there really isn't any...I had an ultrasound of my neck a couple months ago. There is a "spot" that they measured and would like to keep an eye on. I will have my one year body scan in December and that will hopefully determine if my body is "clean" of cancer. Until then - I pretend like nothing's wrong. We are just very thankful for our knowledge of God and his amazing grace, as well as The Plan of Salvation. It's comforting in this crazy world!
