We have had a very busy month and the busy-ness will be continuing the next few weeks. We have been busy the last two weeks packing up our house because it is being sold! Very soon, the stress of having a house in Dayton will be gone and we will only be dealing with the stress of finding a new house. We are very thankful to be so close to finally selling our house, especially given the climate of the market.
We are also preparing to take our Special Wish trip next week. We will be going to Disney World (or Mickeyland, according to Maggie). It will be so nice to take a vacation as a family, as we haven't done so in several years. We have heard that the accommodations for Special Wish are so nice. We will be sure to post pictures and share stories from our trip when we return.
Another big event we just experienced was Maggie's 2 years off chemotherapy. Dr. French has told us that getting to 2 years is a great accomplishment and the odds of relapse drop. We have Maggie's appointment on March 12, so once that appointment is successful and done, I will feel a great sense of relief. Maggie will have a more comprehensive appointment that day with an EKG, echo, and more blood tests looking at her liver. I look forward to that day being behind us.
Though our posts are not as often as they once were, we do appreciate you following along with us still. Thank you for your continued thoughts and prayers.

I am a member of Glen and Jane's Church. Your Maggie's story touched my heart from the first time Jane talked about her and ask for prayers. I prayed every night for her and for her family. Glen has been good enough to forward all your post as he knew how much I cared for Maggie and now for her whole family. Every post I get I either laugh or cry. I know if it is this emotional for me, you probably can't ever keep a "staight face".lol Children of that age are always coming up with funny or hard questions. I bet she is full of them. You have a beautiful family and it warms my heart to know that you are all going to be okay.
Happy for your news of the house selling. Oh, and I agree with Maggie...it should be called Mickeyland.
