December and 09 is slipping away...

I am not sure I have words to express my emotions these days... I am trying to be in the spirit of the season but giving our battles and our busy schedules ( not to mention the rounds of antibiotics we have all been on) I am a bit worn out...best way I know how to say it!

Updates... December meant chemo started... hiccups came again...and wore daddy out... he is finally over the hiccups but has had to have a blood transfusion... and is so tired most of the time... we continue to pray for remission again... beg for it... long for it... I am having a hard time thinking about it for more than a second without tearing up ... I want to scream "it is my daddy you can't have him... I want let you!!!!" And if I could take this from him oh how I would... it makes me angry and hate the C word... I hate it!!! I hate what it does to lives...to families.. to dreams... curse you c...!!!

We did have a wonderful Christmas as a family ...mother and daddy came over to see kids toys and have monkey bread for breakfast...then they loaded up food and headed to paige's and we got dressed and followed for lunch... peaceful...wonderful lunch ... we did have some emotional moments..but wonderful memories and so glad daddy was able to be with us...and feel as good as he did... the kids all think he is fine - no hair loss...and when he is talking and up and about they just think things are normal!!! Dannah and cole say ...okay can we spend the night??? :) gotta love that they try!!

We have spent two nights in the er this past week and cole had a very allergic reaction and dannah with asthma and ear infection...mark and I have not had very much sleep... and today I slept all day... and I am up about to fold three loads of laundry tonight! I am going to suffer getting back on schedule!!!

I will say I did pass biology ...praise the Lord... B!!! I will be jumping right back into 102 -- and if I can conquer biology the rest is going to be just fine!!! I worried and never took biology at UAB and feared it even more at a dr school!!! I waited and put off and now having a b -- well I was just relieved!!!

We are anxious for tomorrow to come granny and papa will be coming into town the kids could hardly go to bed!!! They are so excited to show them all that santa left ...and it looks like santa's work shop threw up in our home... I did manage to get some rubbermaid tubs for dannah's room...they can slide right under the bed and keep her baskets from being overflowing!!! the boys are overflowing...not so sure what we will do with all that... maybe dump some into storage!!!

I will post some pictures from christmas... and pray for a Happy New Years!!! On that will bring Good into our lives...good news... good healthy...good grades! We would love little good!!! good night to all...
