I am ever so grateful and thankful for all of your prayers for my uncle; for your emails and tweets asking how he was doing.
He is doing really well. He finished chemo Monday night with no side effects. His doctors were pleased with the results. We are now praying that his body produces good, healthy white blood cells and bone marrow.
My father-in-law is also doing really well right now. He goes today to get measured and marked for radiation and will get his treatment plan and begin treatment next week.
This week, I am so, so thankful that my Uncle Tom is doing well and in good spirits.
I am also thankful that Jason's stepfather is doing well and in good spirits.

and had the girls map out our deck by pacing
our homeschoolneighbors sisters--they have started calling each other sisters and I must say, I am so comfortable with these girls, I think of them as my own! - what a Blessing!
My crazy husband who let the girls color his hair with water and chalk pastels--it was just until he took a shower--but they had fun!
homeschool neighbor dad and how my girls feel comfortable calling him and asking if his girls can come over and make a movie with them for Apple camp and he went out of his way to get them here to make the movie!
