Balancing act..

And so yet another PCR screams up on us.  Are there only four in a year or is that the years are whizzing by so fast that they just seem to be piling up like ice on the frozen shore?  It just seems that every time I turn around, it's again time to order that box of goodies.  And then that wait.

It's a balancing act.  All of life is, but when a kid has cancer, it has a bit more of a sharp edge to it.  So like this dew drop on a tiny leaf, I feel as if life is tilting just a little again.  No big problem, no freaking, just a little tilt until we get those results that are going to be great, or even better, again.

In the meantime - Steven and Laura close on their house tomorrow and start moving in right away!  Wow - what it must be to buy a house at that age... I was much much older before having that opportunity.  It's totally wonderful to see him so excited, the boxes piled up in their apartment and ........just to think that one point I wondered if he would ever be able to do any of this - somehow that makes all this so much more special.  Right now they live literally  down the same road as we are on and many days I see him coming around the corner on his way home or leaving - always made me smile.  I really am going to miss that.  But I am so happy for them both.  And their wedding is only weeks away now too...

So, even with the little tilt, I am one really happy, blessed and fortunate mama....

love and light
Annie

Hi Annie!

All good wishes to Steven and Laura for tomorrow! How wonderful is that....and I'm thinking of you too as can imagine the fact that you'll miss seeing him daily. How great though that he is so happy and can do these things eh! So thinking of you all for all sorts of reasons, and fingers crossed for everything.....

Much love Barbara xx
