This was a wonderful Mother's Day! I would like to thank Don and Jackie for organizing our Komen Race for the Cure Team. They set the team up and worked out all the logistics for our team today! It was a little chilly and windy but I will take that over hot and humid any day! It is very inspiring to stand in the middle of a group of thousands of people who are trying to cure a disease that I have been fighting for almost seven years. Thanks to all our team members who gave up a Sunday morning to walk and all of the friends, co-workers and family members who contributed to our team goal!
I also think it was special to spend time with my brothers and dad on Mother's Day. My mom would have been so happy to see her grandkids playing in the park and running through the house. She was truly the cornerstone of our family and I think she would be proud that we were together today!
After the walk we warmed up at Don and Jackie's house where they had a delicious spread! The kids had a great time playing and the ride home was pretty quiet.
When we got home, Brad had stuffed salmon, scallops and asparagus waiting! Then the boys gave me a beautiful mothers ring with the birthstones of both boys. The icing on the cake came this evening when I saw that I had an e-mail from my doctor saying that my bloodwork that was drawn last Tuesday showed a decrease in my tumor markers!
This is my sixth Mother's Day and I consider it a pretty perfect Mother's Day!
