Blogger always has problems. I wanted to attach this photo of Gavin to my previous post, but it wouldn't allow it. Here is a quick snapshot of what I was dealing with today. He took all of the toys out of his toychest to hide from me when it was time for breakfast. The day was off to a great start <yes, that is meant to be sarcastic>. Still, he is one cute kid and I am so blessed :) XOXO. Goodnight.
So Gray Today
Ty and Gavin, July 2010 Gold is an appropriate awareness color for childhood cancer (shiny and new and triumphant), just as gray is a fitting awareness color for brain tumors. Gray matter (get it?), but even more so, the overwhelming feeling when thinking about brain tumors is quite gray. It’s all gloom because it’s all just goddamn awful. I’m glad it’s been cloudy, cold, rainy and gray because that’s exactly how I feel on this first day of Brain Cancer Awareness month. My memories of what I witnessed leaves me with a dark, colorless range of emotions. I can’t stop thinking of all the things, large and small, that occurred during my son’s far too short time here with us. For Mother’s day when Ty was two, Lou bought me a bike with a seat on back for Ty. Ty was so excited to show me in the morning. We went for a ride on the boardwalk but he ended up crying the entire time. He hated the bumps. What I didn’t know is that he hated riding with me because it was giving him a headache. T
And lia's wish at Adam's wishing well this week was..." I don't like when I get time out, I don't like when Mommy yells, I don't like when Ty has cancer" .
