I'll go with it....

I <3 Jamie Nearing.  I do, it's very true.

For those of you who are wondering Jamie is an 18 year old beauty that I had the best fortune of meeting and being a part of her formative years in Kelowna.  We've been on missions trips together, I was her small group leader, Sunday school teacher, mentor and friend.

She is mostly and best-ly my friend.

And I just spent 2 hours on the phone with her.

I love her to pieces--and I have tried several times to convince her to move in with us, but alas, she will more than likely be staying in Kelowna.  Victoria's loss for sure.

We reminisced about our last trip to New York, Phoenix...(not the city).....sigh, how amazing our team was, how easy the trip was....we both decided we would do the trip over again in a heart beat.

We talked serious stuff too.

I miss her tons and I wish that I could be her Mom, but I can't.  I can only be her Kimmy.  (And she is the ONLY teen that has EVER gotten away with calling me that.....)

I loved our call -- it brought to the forefront of my mind how much I miss my kids.

I am hoping that the radiation oncologist gives me my schedule for my next part of treatment shortly, I want to plan a August trip to Kelowna.  We want to deliver Melissa and Jonathan's stuffs.

Then I could see some of my kids.  Like Lexi and Ashley, we have a date to do the canal this summer....and bald or not, I want to float with my girls.

On a completely unrelated note I got a text from Kent today.  I know you'll all agree with me, he is the most amazing husband ever.  He has been under a great deal of stress and feeling pretty worn out--but he still found time to send me this text today:

Today is our  25 1/4 anniversary of when I asked you out.  Enjoyed our coffee date.  :)

How can you not love that?

Kent had to let me down easy this morning that we had missed 2 Wednesday morning dates the last 2 weeks.  I had honestly, no idea it had been that long.  Thank you Chemo brain....at least I can announce with assurance, Chemo is over.  

Yeah!

On a serious note, my eyebrows decided that yesterday was the day to depart en masse.  I have not wanted to be that girl that has to draw in her eyebrows, you know that look unless done really well, can look really bad!  I have friend, (nameless) who draws in the best eyebrows ever and seriously, I had no idea until she told me.

So, the eyebrows.  How thick, how long, how bushy, how arched?!  Agh!  So I've decided to go with this:

Except I don't have blonde hair....
