The girls are home for their "spring break"...only Thursday through Sunday, but I'll take what I can get! I had parent/teacher conferences on Thursday night, but was so blessed with a snow day on Friday. Yea! Without that I really wouldn't have seen them much. Carli went to lunch with her friend that is going through chemotherapy. She was so impressed that Rachel can be in public without anything on her bald head. She has such confidence. Pray for her as her counts were too low this week to get her chemo.

Kelsie and I went shopping...which is very rare for her since she doesn't like to shop. (I know...where did she come from?). She has a couple of dances coming up and needed dresses. Grove City is a wonderful place...Kelsie wants dresses!! Her sorority is busy with social acitivities as well as fundraising for things like the Leukemia/Lymphoma Society. She also talks about Bible studies...which they call "Jesus Parties". What a hoot. (No pun intended...their mascot is the owl).

Kelsie is concerned about Carli studying too hard and worrying about her health in the future. It is my prayer that God knew what He was doing when he put Kelsie at Grove City, too. I really think that she will be good for Carli and good for Mom's peace of mind. Carli is still trying to figure out her life from here...how to get in all of the courses that she needs and get the grades needed to apply to PT school. Kelsie talked with an engineering prof that Carli knows and he really helped her. She is still planning on staying in engineering..we'll see how that goes!

We are going to see "Wicked" today as a family...Tara is home, too. Can't wait!!
