Adam is writing a thank you note to my friend and coworker Marie and her husband. They gave Adam some awesome stuff. Adam has received many wonderful gifts and we continue to have to remind him to be thankful and to understand that these are not just gifts for the heck of it, but gifts of love and support. He gets it.....sometimes. He is 11 after all.
Adam had a good day yesterday, his birthday. We took him and his friend Antonio to PizzaPerfect. Our favorite. Adam's stomach was not feeling so hot but his mood stayed up. When we got home we finished off the cupcakes Adam and Martha had taken to Meigs earlier and then Adam, Antonio and me had a nerf gun war. Talk about therapeutic. Nerf guns are great, like paint ball with out all the mess. It was two on one, and I must say that I held my own.
Each good day counts. Today has been pretty good as well. Adam's home bound teacher came over and he is keeping up but I don't think he is in any real danger of not proceeding on to the 6th grade.
We had an impromptu dinner with our neighbors and friends, John, Julia and their kids, Fin and Morgan. Delicious lasagna provided by one of Martha's coworkers, Kris W. It was really good. And the apple pie was fantastic!
Tomorrow Adam goes for his weekly outpt chemo. Shouldn't be too bad. His white blood count is going down as expected so we will have to watch it for the next few days.
Have a good night.
ps--I would like to send a special (and belated) happy birthday to my nephews, Tucker and Scott. Welcome to the terrible twos.
