Wow! Time Flies Even When You are Not Having Fun

Whew! It's been a whirlwind of activity. Some good, some not so good. First, and most important my granddaughters' both had birthdays this month. It's hard to believe they are now 10 and 12. They are growing into such nice young ladies. Then, the bad news, my daughter found out she has melanoma. This is difficult, because you say skin cancer and people think oh that's not really cancer. This is the real thing, it's cancer. She will always have to be careful, and luckily caught it before it became something they couldn't treat. She is going in next Friday to have more tissue and skin removed to make sure there are not any more cancer cells there.
As a parent, it is difficult to watch your child go through this, you would rather take it on then have them hurt or worry. I wish I could make it better but I can't. I just have to believe she is going to be just fine, and this is the one and only instance she will have. She is doing great and says it is just a bump in the road. What an awesome attitude, I can't believe I have a daughter as wonderful as she is. I truly admire her! That's all for now, I have so much to be thankful for, but I have to get the pumpkin pie out of the oven, I will post later or tomorrow.
