Fun at the house

The kids have been enjoying playing together. There is an indoor play area in the basement of the Ronald McDonald house. There is a giant tree with a slide down one side, a big leopard and a turtle to crawl on, as well as a hollow log to crawl through and a bridge to crawl over.

Nathan is such a ray of sunshine as always. So sweet and yet all boy. He thinks all bodily functions are hilarious and lets them rip at many an inappropriate moment!

Ben's head seems to be healing well. I was checking it out tonight to see if I could feel where the bone had been cut... I really am a science geek. Should've gone into nursing like I started out to do.



It won't be long and I will cringe when Ben goes out to play. His blood counts should be dropping rapidly and along with infection I will have to protect him from bumps, cuts, and bruises. It's so hard to have to curtail normal child behavior.


There was a group from a local high school that brought lunch in today. They also brought the easter bunny and some eggs and candy. Ben LOVED the easter bunny! None of the kids ate well because they were so busy watching the bunny. Samantha is an embarassingly good easter egg finder. I made her take some of her loot and give it back so other kids got some too!
