Because Kean Has Cancer

We had a fun visitor drop by today..
which meant adult conversation for mom
and lots of hugs for Keanut.
Lindsey Pennington is a student at BSU majoring in therapy.
We've known her for forever and last summer she worked for us
taking Kean for a few hours a week.
It was such a treat to see her.
 We also got a surprise in my inbox today.
Ballet Idaho sent us the pictures from when the girls got
to "guest" on stage for The Nutcracker.
 Most of the pictures have the girls staring in wonder at the dancers 
on the stage.
What a memorable experience that one was.
It is interesting.  Last night, on the way to the comedy dinner,
Holland said how sad it is that there are all these things we get invited to go and do
because Kean has cancer-- but he can never go and enjoy them.
She's right.  But as I pointed out, they are 'suffering' from his cancer too
and what a blessing it is to make so many new friends and have so many 
amazing experiences.
I've said it many times, cancer has been the most brutal experience of our lives
but it has also been the most beautiful.
Case in point, Baldapalooza never would have been conceived 
without this huge new chapter consuming our lives.
So don't forget to vote (again and again-- make that ten times each day)
for us to get a grant for our charity.
Here's the link:
We are on page four.  Look for the hand with writing and the title:
BALD, BOLD and BEAUTIFUL.
Thanks for your patience and help.
