Spendy the Night Party
Zoe got to come spend the night last night. My counts are pretty low, and I'm a little tired, but she's not sick so it was ok. Pizza and watching a movie on Nick. Painting toenails. Typical slumber party behavior. Here she is in mom's t-shirt - one of my favorites because my friend D1 donated platelets to MDA to get it.
I'm amazed at how big she's gotten. She seems like a little adult now. It makes me so proud that she is so sweet. She washed and conditioned her own hair and was like... "I need body gel so I can be fresh and clean." Then when she was brushing her teeth, she gargled with water. It was so funny to me that she's so grown up.
Right now we are all in our jammies, watching cartoons, and she's coloring on this cool velvet box that my friend Sugarsnit sent for Christmas.
She has now lost six teeth. She totally looks like a jack-o-lantern.
I think we are going to hang out in our jammies today and color. I could think of nothing finer. I have missed this child with all my being.
Today my leukemia is a million miles away.
All is well with the world. Especially in Sri Lanka.
Lovely. Enjoy!

You can borrow my shotgun to hang over your front door when she's older and the boys start coming around.
