List A: all the good things


I asked Rosalie and Victoria to help me think of some good things that have happened to us since cancer came to live at our house. Rosalie said that there isn't one good thing about having cancer (can you picture her pouty face?). Victoria and I came up with a few things with no trouble at all. I think we will keep up this list and add to it as time progresses. Take note - you do not have to wait for bad news to try anything on this list. Call up an old chum today, hug your friends, and bake a batch of cookies for your neighbour. 
  1. Our freezer is full of food.
  2. People are being really kind to us. 
  3. We are getting lots of hugs from everyone (I love hugs!)
  4. The kids, including Mathis and Bruno are helping around the house more. 
  5. I am getting lots of phone calls and emails from people I haven't heard from in a while.
  6. The house looks better with lots of flowers. 
  7. I will be able to change my hair style and colour whenever I want. 
  8. I will have more time to read.

We do this every night!!!

Victoria had lots of practice with this last year -

Mark and I come up with 5 positive things about our day (just before bed), and we made everybody do on the ski trip!!!

Funny enough - every single night, everybody had 'we're at panorama' as one of our items... Victoria included.
