Here I made you cookies
Women nurture with food. We are all about visiting and bringing food with us. Since Troys diagnosis we have had so many cookies, cinnamon rolls, bread, ect... brought over. The kids are in heaven. They love it and we appreciate the love that is behind each gift. The other day I had to explain to my six year old's friends mom why I could not invite her daughter over ( Troy has low white blood cells) I was trying to keep it light and matter of fact. I took Lydia over to the house to play with her friend. The mom who is so sweet, came running out and thrust aplate of cookies in my hands. " I made you cookies, I'm so sorry about what you are going through" It really made my day because not only did it make me laugh but it was one more person who said that they will pray for us, and who went out of their way to show love to us. I am gratefull for all of the love and prayers that we are recieving!

So glad to find your blog. You are a wonderful, strong and courageous woman. Your family is in our thoughts and prayers. If you're killing time, my blog is www.itjustfitz.blogspot.com Take care. Remember, it's always darkest before the dawn!
Glad to see you back! Can't wait to see you in June. We keep praying for you.
Hi Tina, Our trials are to temper, humble as well as teach us. I thought you and Troy were already there. :) But maybe it's for the rest of us to watch you go through and learn from. We're also experiencing trials beyond what we ever thought, too. Hopefully not life threatening, though. We love you all and think of you often.
