Homdel Park in the Spring
Well, today was probably the best day of the month. It’s the day before chemo which means, this is our best chance for Misty to be feeling well (she has the most time since the last round). So I took the gamble and took the day off of work. It turned out to be a great call. We went out to Homdel Park, just after lunch, and walked around for a while taking pictures and watching Olivia do ridiculously funny things. Like walk up to a 14 month old boy and start petting his face. She is so friendly with kids…its like there are no boundaries – quite amusing. And we were walking down a paved walkway and she turns to Misty and says “tired” – then she lays down right there on the pavement and puts her head down. It was so funny.
We hit up the Long Street Farm as well, where Olivia got to practice her animal sounds on the cows and sheep (she has them down pat). The trees were starting to bloom as well – it was beautiful. There were quite a few people out by the pond there painting. I thought that was interesting. Then from there we headed to my parents house and stayed for dinner.
Ah, a fabulous day. Now its time for bed. Misty’s appt for chemo comes early in the morning…
PS…I need to give a shout to my friend Julieann Connors, who is participating in the American Cancer Society’s Relay for Life on May 9th and 10th. If you’d like to support her, please contact me and I can put you in touch with this young hero!
