We celebrated Zoe’s birthday this past week.
First with a family party
And finally a Harry Potter party last night. Complete with…
Hogsmeade shopping
And friends who make Zoe smile like this…
Zoe’s birthday is in many ways a marker for me as well. We learned the grim news of my metastatic disease on her 4th birthday. This year, however, we got to mark my 5th anniversary of living well with cancer with this news: the Herceptin and Magestrol I have been on seem to be arresting the cancer’s growth and possibly even shrinking it. This feels like whipped cream on the top of a cup already overflowing with the happiness of marking another year as Zoe’s parents. So lovely. We are so grateful for it all.
