Happy Wednesday!
Sorry I didn’t get to post last night. I left the boys with Woody in the main room and went into my bedroom at 8:00, shut all the doors, turned off my phone, and fell asleep. It felt so nice to just kind of close out the world for that moment. Woody put Ronan in…

It’s so obvious
When going through something like this, you find out who truly loves you. Not just an on the surface kind of love. But a love so deep that their lives are affected by what you are going through. It’s simple things like seeing them be more grateful for the things they have. A dear friend…

Busy Monday
Since we can’t take Ronan anywhere, we’ve been busy trying to keep him busy at home. Woody bought him his very own Wii last night….(forget the fact that the twins have one in their bedroom) Woody felt like Ronan needed his very own to have in the front room and to take the hospital when…

Sunday Funday
Today was a great day. Our morning started off with a visit from my friend, Jocelyn. She stopped by and brought me my Hava Java coffee, but more importantly she brought great hugs and heartfelt words. Ronan was a little skeptical of her being here, as he is with everyone. He ran into my room…

A new kind of normal
Somedays, I can almost trick myself into thinking this isn’t happening to us. It usually doesn’t last more than a few hours, but those few hours are so blissful. Like this afternoon for instance. My neighbor, Niki, came over to bring me lunch. We sat at my kitchen table and enjoyed each others company while…

Ronan’s world
Ro and I spent our morning with Lauren. She stopped by after dropping W off at school (shed a tear, Ro and W were going to be in the same preschool class). She brought me a coffee from my favorite place, Hava Java, and came over to check in on us. Ronan was in a…

Snug as a bug in a rug
Tonight I laid with Ronan in his bed until he fell asleep. He didn’t nap today so he fell asleep easily. He looks so peaceful and content. We whispered about a lot of things but I mostly told him how much I love him and how much I’ve missed him. We talked about how he…

Time to face the music
Somedays I can talk about Ronan’s cancer until I’m blue in the face and not shed a tear. The next day I pull into the carwash and the carwash man, Mr. Jay can ask about Ronan and give me a hug and I lose it like a baby. There really is no rhyme/reason/control over these…

The little monkey can come home tonight!
I talked to Ronan’s main nurse, Sharon today. She said that Ronan is doing well enough that he should be able to come home tonight. Great news for us! He is so ready to be back here and we are so ready to have him. I have my maids here now, getting EVERYTHING extra sanitary…

I believe
I believe in mind over matter. In the human spirit to prevail. In miracles and blessings; both great and small. In possibilities. That hurdles in life are meant to be jumped over, not something to stop us. Our friends, Stacy and Kenny Frakes sent us this card. It has become one of my favorites:)
