Our Life

Katelyn has been out of the hospital for 2 years, today. She was released on my and Todd's 2 year wedding anniversary. Today we celebrate 5 years of marriage. I am so very blessed. I am loved by an incredible man, who takes care of me and our precious children. I have two healthy, happy, wonderful daughters who light my world every day. And, Katelyn continues to prove every day that she is a fighter and loves life. I couldn't be happier, I couldn't be in a better place, and I couldn't be more grateful for all the support we've had... not just that last 3 years, but all the positivity and love we've been given in the last 11 years is what has helped us to get through the trials that have brought us here.

Katelyn has been in remission for 2 1/2 years. It's amazing to think that once we thought we might lose her. I am so very thankful for her strength. She is the strongest, most amazing child. She is almost 4 years old and wants to go to Disneyland for her birthday. She goes to preschool at Busy Bee Preschool and she loves it. She is creative and very, very.... very... girly. Dresses every day, pretty shoes, mommy's high heels, bows, clips, braids, and anything girly. Oh, lipgloss, she is obsessed. She also has an independence that I am not sure what to do with. She is expoloratory with her words, her reactions, her demands, her emotions, her creativity and everything else. I'm proud most the time, and flustered as well. I am so very thankful that she is able to push the limits and explore. Once upon a time there was a possibility that she wouldn't have those options and I have to remember that.

Kiera Bear. She is a funny little lady. She makes me laugh everyday. She likes to be silly and will go with the flow to keep you laughing. My baby turned two in March and it blows my mind. She talks up a storm and is witty. She observes everything and remembers it all. Nothing gets by that little lady. She and Kate are best friends and can also push eachothers buttons.

All in all, life is good! Todd's busy with work and building his business, I'm going to school and very happily taking care of my family. Life is good!

Thanks to all of you for your love and support!!!
