Live from the recovery room.......

Sheri's surgery went well. We're in the recovery room in the clinic. The Doc says all went as planned. She'll be sore for a week or so, and needs to lay low. Sue, Sheri's mom, is helping us with the kids, and will be at the house with Sheri as I go to work the rest of the week. I'm looking forward to her great spaghetti! My mom got out of the Wenatchee hospital yesterday, and is back at home. I must say this whole hospital thing is getting a bit old. I'm glad they're here, I just don't want to have to visit them so darn much.

The great hair race is on! Sheri holds a slight lead (I gave her a head start), but I'm catching fast. We figure you've got to have some fun with all this. If you take it too seriously, it's overwhelming, and you'll go nuts. The next few weeks are pretty calm. Recover from surgery, Herseptin next week, and finish out the school year. Bryce and Alyssa are looking forward to summer, so are we. The little things in life mean a lot more then before. Things like sitting in chairs on the lawn just enjoying the view seem pretty cool. For us, life is about the everyday things. There's a whole lot of life that happens between the big events in life. Don't miss it. Soak it in, and enjoy it. As we've found out, things can change very fast.

Thanks again for all the support. We may never be able to full express our appreciation to all of you for prayers, meals, house cleanings, and encouraging words. We live in a great place, with great people. We are blessed.
