While being in my "living frame of mind"....my parents were gracious enough to help me with some landscaping in our backyard over the weekend (ie. my lovely birthday gift from them was a trip to the nursery). We spent 6 hours digging, planting and transplanting on a day when it was around 95 degrees. Despite being a sweaty filthy mess, the end result was worth it. I now have a backyard that is peaceful and relaxing....and something that I will enjoy looking at everyday when the boys are playing outside.
I celebrated my 39th birthday on Thursday. It is hard to believe I am "almost forty". My parents came up to celebrate with us....and we spent the day simply enjoying being together. Cancer makes you aware even more that the little things in life are what truly matter. I cherished every minute being with my family and I look forward to many more birthdays with them!
Peace, Love and Miracles
