Resting in being done. Trusting God. Relaxing into this moment and allowing the smiles, the tears, the surprise of "we made it!", the hope and joy that are swirling in amongst the evening and the exhaustion. Still gotta get through chemo week, but feeling content.
And look at these lovely celebration flowers from Keri and Kori! Thanks sisters! We did it!!!
Grateful for silver linings, one of which is how family and friends are gathering around us in prayer and with offers of support. Cancer is a lot of hard things. It is already proving to be a lot of connecting with loved ones and strengthening of relationships and that is so, so good.

Looking forward to a REAL celebration. You were on our minds ALL day. Couldn't wait for the text to say port was working....chemo started...hooray I'm done! Was on the edge of my seat all day! Taking a deep breath this morning and saying an extra prayer for you as you sit back and let the chemo do it's thing. Love you Kris!
