Happy #5 Talia!

This is a quick post - mostly to share the joy of today! Talia turns 5 and we are so proud of her! We have a busy day planned - out to breakfast, party at school, pedicure and then dinner at Fatapples. We are enjoying showering T with lots of love and special presents. She is such a big girl!

I am doing OK - the fatigue continues to be a challenge. Yesterday was the first day in 2 weeks that I didn't nap and I was exhausted by 8:30. I'm sleeping better (and more importantly, without any drugs!) which is fabulous. I'm also starting to get REALLY excited for January 27. I really cannot wait for the feeling of walking out of the infusion center for the last time. The nurses there are amazing. I am trying to think of a thoughtful gift to leave with them (other than baked goods) - anyone have any suggestions?

That's all for now - morning duties are calling!

  1. Happy Birthday Talia! Hope the day is fun for all.

    Mollie's nurses really appreciated some Burts Bees products (lip balm and hand lotion) last year. I know their hands get really dry with all the handwashing and wearing gloves...

    Yay for Jan. 27!

  3. Happy Birthday Talia. It was a perfectly wonderful day. I loved sharing it with all of you. What an incredibly grown up little girl she is. I'm couting with you. Love, Mom

  4. Happy birthday to your big girl! As for suggestions for your nurses, maybe a mani/pedi gift certificate or coffee gift certificates are always good.

    Stay strong you are almost DONE! xo
