Cancer. It is a horrible word... One of our dear friends from church, a wonderful older lady that Hannah adores, was just diagnosed with lung cancer. It is devastating. She has been a faithful preschool volunteer and a light in anyone's day. We love her dearly. This will be difficult. Hannah already knows that cancer is not a good thing... our Pastor's sister just died from breast cancer. I have not told Hannah yet. I will need to tell her tomorrow because it will come up at church during prayer time I am sure. I hate cancer.
Other than this horrible news, my week has been excellent. I have felt more normal than I have in a long time. The kids LOVE their chore charts and it has really given me more time in my day. I am still helping them get it down right, but they really seem to have a sense of accomplishment and the allowance doesn't hurt either!
There was one other hiccup in our week. Eli has a massive ear infection. He woke up with a 103.8 fever and I got him straight to the clinic. I have no desire to ever see one of my children suffer from a seizure. I pray I never have to see that. Anyway, he has nasty ear infection and now on antibiotics. Nothing new in our household. I hope Eli doesn't go the way Hannah did with her ears. Isaac has had one ear infection in his entire life... he just gets the lung stuff. I'm glad we live in an age of good medicine!
