Take me out...

to the ball game.


Take me out with the crowd.


Buy me some peanuts


and cracker jacks.


Monica didn't care if she ever got back, but I caught her root, root, rooting for the Cubbies! (between her bites of this)



If they didn't win, it (our view) would be a shame.



But it was 1, 2, 3 strikes they were out

- at this great ball game YEAAAA!!!!!

We're here today! YAY!!!!!

We are so excited - except for Monica, but she doesn't know just how fun it is going to be!

We are praying for a nice day to sit at the ball park and enjoy the company of thousands of people all hoping for the same outcome!

I'll let you all know how much fun it really was tomorrow!

2009 Christmas Card

This is the last formal picture of our family of four outside of the hospital setting. I wanted to use if for our Christmas card this year when it was taken, and I still love it!

Holiday decorations

Sunday we decorated for the holidays at two special places.
Granny and Grandpa Brown's place.

And, Megan's place.

We wanted them to know that we were still thinking about them every single day. They are part of all our holiday memories and will be forever.

Feelings

Megan's vital signs have remained constant these past few days. But, I know in the back of my head that if I close my eyes, I might not see her here with me again.

I know she will be fine. I don't have to worry about her. She will be better than she ever has been.

I worry about our family. 
How will we be the same?
How will we be different?
Will we hurt as long as we are here on earth?

It is a comfort to know that in the distant future we will be together again. I try to focus on that.

But we are still humans with earthly feelings that well up inside us.
I haven't cried for a few days. But I feel it coming again.
