Etta earning her chore tokens.,.

Etta has a list of chores each week. She did so well this past week she earned a small doll she adores. This week she has added to her list some reading. I know reading shouldn't be a chore but a parent has to do what one has to do....

Who knows what next week will bring. 

Happy Late Birthday to My Sweet Evan!

On July 7th Evan turned 17 years old. I can hardly believe that. He is working hard. He is a young adult. He has come so far and has far to go yet. He is going to voice lessons, learning the piano more, and working on learning to play the guitar. I love you Evan. Sorry I didn't post on your actual birthday.

My days....

I feel I am stuck. Cancer, working overtime even though I love me my job, trying to balance life and work and disease, feeling guilty all the time. I am exhausted. But am I really?
