Wrapping up

Today was our last clinic visit during Callum's chemotherapy treatment program! The next time we come in will be for his last spinal tap and bone marrow procedure (after he's done with chemotherapy)! Kinda crazy that the end of his treatment is only 2 weeks away!

We spent the usual time going over his meds and any concerns but then the rest/bulk of our visit turned to discussions about "the end" - what to expect on which days, confining last days of chemo, and then what our visits will begin to look like after he's done with treatment.

Our oncologist asked me - so have you thought about what you'll do when this is all done?

And, for the first time in a long time, I didn't have a solid answer! (Shocking, I know) ;-)

I know I'll be spending the bulk of my time volunteering at the boys' school (I'm already signed up for a slew of jobs), as well as more time volunteering at the hospital. I think I'll start up a few more remodeling projects that we want to finish at the house. But other than that, I'm not quite sure yet! I guess we'll have to wait and see.... :)

Life lessons from Callum

Mom, when you get older you don't like all kinds of stuff. And when Briggs wants to play with me, he only wants to play Pirates of the Caribbean. And I don't like to play Pirates of the Caribbean or Peter Pan.

Mom, is that a train I hear?

Why yes, yes it is. :)

Cursive!

I was delighted to see Logan's homework last night had a cursive worksheet! Glad our school is continuing to teach it (so many schools now don't, and I think that's a shame).

Friday morning

Another successful morning off to school!

The second pic shows our boys with our neighbor's son. The boys lined up on their own, by grade/age: 1st, 2nd and 3rd grade! :)

We now have a 1st Grader and 3rd Grader in the house! 😱

They got off to school really well today - so much energy and excitement. Looking forward to a wonderful year! ❤️❤️
