HOME!!!

We are home! Steve got to take Brooke home this afternoon. It only took 7 phone calls with the nurses for me to get it all straight :) But, oh so worth it. We had a crazy weekend planned with the girls having things to do and me working. I was getting a little nervous about Brooke being up at the "spa." To be honest, I didn't have time for it. If I can do it at home, I want to be home (as you can see it's all about me :) Not really, but, her labs were stable last night and today so there was no reason for her to stay. We can do the IV's and meds at home. So here we are again. Brooke was so happy tonight. She was playing, laughing and getting into cupboards. Unfortunately Macy has a cold so we have to keep them away from each other. It feels so right to have her home. We will all sleep well. We just pray this is not how Brooke's winter is going to go. We can't predict the future so we'll just enjoy the days. God once again carried us through another trial. He is so amazing!
One other amazing thing......I got home last night and was looking through papers (a pile of them on the counter :) I came across a permission slip for Meg and Leah to go on a Gems outing tonight. I mentioned it to them. They said "yeah we know about it." I asked if they wanted to go. They both said they wanted to go. I told them if I wouldn't have seen the paper they would have missed it. They told me, "it's ok mom. We don't have time for everything." I was amazed! No complaining, no begging, no "it's not fair." They just roll with it. They are at their Gems outing, and boy do the deserve it. What great kids!!
