So, I went over to my parents today to visit Kolby and my mom. I got there and Kolby was still asleep! That crazy girl can sleep till 12 in the afternoon! I used to be able to do that in high school and during the summer, but being pregnant it's a lot harder! I love sitting there with Kolby, even when she does sleep all day long. I didn't get to see her yesterday, and I hate the days I don't see her. So I made sure to come by today and hang out with her for awhile. I was talking to her about her "wish" since she gets to make a wish with Make A Wish Foundation. I asked if she made a decision. She told me no, she hasn't. I asked her why not?! She said she wants to do something that the whole family can be included in. There Kolby goes, trying to think of everyone else instead of this one wish for herself! I told her we can always do things as a family. That she needed to think of this wish for HERSELF! I love her so much. I sat with her and told her to lay down and I tickled her back for about 20 minutes. It's amazing how when you get your back tickled everything on your mind goes away. I wish i could take everything away from her and have her enjoy her summer and hang out with her friends. Hopefully she will start having more energy so she could come hang out with us all. Today mom and I got in the pool and Kolby said she'd come lay in the raft but she was really tired.. I got pretty sun burnt. Maybe next time I'll put sun screen on. Kolby and I said we will compete this year to see who can get a tan the quickest or the most tannest! Kolby will probably win because she tans so easily! I just want kolby to know how much I love her and that I'm always thinking of her! I love you Kolby! I'll see you tomorrow!!
I just caught Kolby updating her sticker chart. I cannot believe that it is almost filled in. She is so excited, and she is in such a good mood. Her spirits are high and she is feeling fantastic. She only has two more chemo treatments left, and seven more weeks of weekly doctor appointments. Kolby hasn't been missing as much school, and life for her seems to be slowly but surely going back to normal. There are even days that we do not talk about "cancer"! She is busy right now coaching Powderpuff Cheer. She has been a busy busy girl. I just love seeing Kolby so active and wanting to do more and more. Woo-Hoo!
Kylie, you are a wonderful sister. I am so thankful for you and Kristi and for the service you so lovingly give Kolby. I do not ever have to ask you to do anything, you just know what to do. I love you very much. Thank you for being such an amazing sister to Kolby, especially during this difficult time in her life.
