Thanks for giving ....

This year my "Things to be thankful for" List has grown tenfold.



I am Thankful for:

The thoughts and prayers you freely have given to my family.

The comments you have made on this blog, and the wonderful messages you leave on the message board.

The cards, and gifts you have sent Connor, and our family.. the little reminders you have sent him to keep moving forward.

The love, compassion, and care that Connor has received by numerous medical professionals.

The non-profit groups that have provided our family with so much.

Connor's Chemo Pal Nick, who volunteers his time to make Connor's trip's to clinic so enjoyable.

All of our wonderful Family and Friends.

The visitor's who have taken time out of their day to come here, and read this blog.

Connor's fans who have helped him give back to other Children with Cancer.

I'm thankful for our barking dog, Sparky who consistantly cuddles with Connor every night at bedtime.

I'm thankful for the time I have with my son everyday.

I'm thankful to have a husband who continues to make me laugh, stand strong by my side, and hold me at night.



Most of all I'm Thankful for Hope... Thankful that she has gotten us so far, and she continues to be with us everyday. I'm Thankful I can see her everyday.


Connor's quote of the week:
"Well you know mom, I am ALMOST half of a man now"
and
"When you are a grandma ........" (Yikes, nothing he says should start with that)
