"Once you choose hope, anything's possible." ~Christopher Reeve



Oh my!!!! It has been along time since I update and I am sorry about that things have just been wild around here.

I can't believe Christmas and the New Year have past so quickly. We had a wonderful Christmas with the kids and we had alot of fun ringing in the New Year with them also.

Makhi is doing really well. As stange as it may sound the Chemo seemed to really help him. It seemed to just get him back in blance.His speech is really coming along and he behavior is getting better. He is back to school and seems to be doing great. He has started riding the bus to and from school now and he really thinks that he is all grown up now. Every morning when he gets on the bus he goes and picks one of my artifical flowers out of a pot I have outside and gives it to his teacher Mrs.Dawn and then he sits down on the bus and buckles his seatbelt. He has even started put on his own jacket on and zipping it up all by himself. We have really started to work hard on Potty Training with Makhi. This is definatly going to take time. It is so hard for him because of all the meds that he is on it makes it so hard for him to control his bowels. Oh well on step at that time right....

Well I got a call this week from Dr Pranzetelli office and me and Makhi will be flying out to Springfield IL the 1st week in March. I am praying this trip will bring better news then the last time we were out there. I am praying so hard everyday that the 3 rounds of chemo that Makhi just did is all it takes to get this T-Cells back in order. But it will take awhile to see if the great results we see now will last. Makhi has caught 2 colds and I have seen NO SET BACKS well maybe a little behavior issues and that is all. We have so much to be thankful for right now and I pray hard everyday that Makhi keeps on the same track he is on now. God has been good to him and I believe that he is right there seeing us though this battle everyday.

As far as the rest of the family ...Adrian is still laid off and just job hunting so that is STRESSFUL I hope that a good job comes his way soon. Cierra is so busy with Soccer she is getting ready to start her indoor soccer season. It is so hard to keep up with now that she is playing year round. Nataly is enjoying school and girlscout and she is gettting ready for her big cookie sale.

Adrian and I just celebrated our birthdays Jan 9 and Jan 12 oh my we are getting old. Were have all the years gone. He turned the big 30 and I turned 31 OH NOOOOOOOO.

Well I gotta head to bed we all have a supper busy day tomorrow....
God Bless
Tara

So glad to hear that Makhi is doing so well! Especially after the 3 rounds of chemo-I will be praying for him to keep getting better and better. He is such a brave boy going to school on the bus! I can just picture him giving his teacher a flower-that is so sweet. Hope a job is coming your husbands way soon, a great one too. Love,
Debbie and Connor
