We are definitely enjoying our time at home. We have been able to see some of our friends and family and look forward to being at our church for all the Easter services. Tonight we were able to spend some time with the JSU Campus Outreach students at Christy and Jason's house. This was kinda their last time together before everyone goes there different ways for summer. It was so exciting to see how much they have grown since we left back in October. Some of them are going on overseas missions for the summer, a couple are going to beach project, some are going to school, and some are going home to spend the summer with their families. We can't wait to get home and be involved with them again. Jason and Christy picked it up when we left and it has been amazing for us to see how well everything has gone. We are so thankful for them.
Dave is doing pretty well. He is still having a lot of swelling and retaining a lot of fluid. This adds to the difficulty he already has walking due to the neuropathy. We are hoping this begins to go away the further he get out from chemo. So this is the plan.....Dave and I will fly out to Houston next Thursday for his scan and we will see Dr. Ravi on Friday and then fly back here on Friday night. He will then present the case again and see what they say. We are hoping to be home through Relay for Life on May 6th.
The girls are spending some time with their baby cousins. They have missed them so much. I have gotten use to being with the girls so much....I really miss them when their not with me. Samuel started complaining of a sore ear this afternoon so I ran him up to the after hours clinic and of course he had an ear infection. I cannot tell you how bad I did not want to go to a doctors office....but I'm glad we did. They gave him a shot so he should be feeling better soon. He and Erin both got to shoot their BB guns with my Daddy yesterday. They got them for Christmas, but have not gotten to shoot them much in Houston. So what have I been doing? Soaking up every minute of just being at home. I pulled out the crock pot today, dusted it off and cooked some chicken. Now it feels like I'm home when I get the crock pot turned on, the dish washer on, and the washer and dryer going. Ahhhhh how sweet it is to be home. :)
