Jack had his Pre-Kindergarten Graduation today at his daycare he's been attending part-time since he was about 2 years old. It was super cute, and of course they played a slide show with sad songs and read a poem that made this Mama get rather teary. We are so proud of our precious, confident, intelligent, well-adjusted,and adorable Jack (and we're not biased at all--LOL!)
Look at that handsome guy!
We used some great gift cards and had dinner at AppleBee's-- Jack had his first "kiddie cocktail" known only to him as "Cherry 7-Up."

Family shot: I keep telling myself I WILL get back to normal in my appearance.

Jack is one of 3 Jacks in his class-- here he is with "Jack B."
One Happy Dude!
Jack and I at the pre-celebration at Applebee's.Things I've been learning:
1. Jack is growing up WAY too quickly and we need to embrace each and every day. I think we try to do that.
2. Going through cancer is an emotional roller-coaster and I need to pace myself, give myself grace, and be OK with where I'm at right now.
3. Doing more things myself such as cleaning, cooking, and organizing (when I can) are helpful for me. Although brain radiation is very fatiguing.
4. Tomorrow is my LAST radiation treatment and we are celebrating! Lunch at Chili's, dinner at Red Lobster, etc.-- all courtesy of some very kind families from Jack's daycare and some neighbors who reached out to us in this way. SO GRATEFUL.
