As many of you know, my mom was diagnosed with breast cancer this past September. It was very hard hearing the news, but we went through the steps...surgery, radiation therapy, misc dr appts, and now....we are hopefully done! Mom's last radiation treatment was this past Wednesday! She had to go 5 days a week for 6 1/2 weeks. She's quite a trooper. She always kept a positive outlook, and even encouraged us to trust in the Lord through it all. She was known at the TMH radiation place as "the counselor". The employees said they always knew mom would be out there in the lobby encouraging others in their "cancer journey", and will miss her there. Mom, thanks for all you have done for me, Ang and Amber!!! Thanks for all your encouraging words over the years. We love you very much!
Recently, as mom and I were driving in the car, she reminded me just how blessed I really am. I have a husband who loves me and our kids very much, goes to work every day in order to provide for us, and strives to serve the Lord daily. I have a house with a roof on it, friends and family who love/support me, 2 overall healthy kids, and a job doing what I love. I have a God who loves me unconditionally, shows me grace and mercy daily, and continues to provide people in my life who encourage me when I need some "pick-me-up" words. :) WOW....I really am blessed. Thanks mom for reminding me of this. :)

Wouldn't it be wonderful if we "all" realized just how blessed we are? Sometimes I forget how blessed I am and then I come to work and your mom is here. I am so blessed to have her as my friend. She is one of a kind. I know you guys know that. Thanks for taking me into your family too. I love you guys.
