I Corinthians 12:24-27

But God has put the body together.... that its parts should have equal concern for each other. If one part suffers, every part suffers with it; if one part is honored, every part rejoices with it.

Now you are the body of Christ, and each one of you is a part of it.

Day Two - Cycle Seven

Amanda slept through the night last night!!  That is a huge praise - she didn't get sick!  Wahoo!  One happy momma right here.  She has had a great day watching movies, drawing, coloring and playing on her kindle while relaxing in bed.  She does feel a little yucky, but right now she is doing really well.  I am so thankful.

As for taking the medication, it is awesome - one pill, no problem!  She does it pretty quick without any anxiety.  In case you were wondering, the gifts so far have been a Duck Dynasty shirt and some DD decals to hang in her room (Happy, Happy, Happy!) and a new 3DS stylus set.  Two days down, three to go!

As for me, I have enjoyed reading, working on our photo album from Montana and my favorite, laundry (not really, it is just one of those things that never goes away!).   My mom came over and spoiled us today by cooking lunch and dinner along with bringing snacks for Amanda.   Today Amanda was craving fruit.  Pineapple, cherries, apples, oranges - you name it, it sounded good to her!  That is actually one of the perks of Amanda being on chemo, since she takes steroids while she takes her chemo, she eats really well!

Praying for another great night and a repeat of today!

Here are some pictures from our trip to ROCK yesterday.  Amanda was very excited because my mom, sister, brother in law and nephews (the Earps), were able to come out, see ROCK and meet Romeo.  It was a COLD day! 
Perfect timing!  We got there in time to help Ms. Leslie feed!
Finally, after almost three weeks, she gets to see her Romeo.
As Ms. Leslie brought the horses in, Amanda would name them....she is good!
After feeding time was over, Ms. Judy got Romeo for a little one on one attention.

Amanda and Ms. Judy almost look like they are planning something, or with those two, it should be more like plotting....

She got to groom him, and while I'm sure Romeo enjoyed it, the poor guy had to take his coat off....


Watching her interact with him is one of my favorite things to do.
The way that Romeo helps boost her spirits is unlike anything I've ever seen.  What a blessing!

The beginning of anxiety is the end of faith, and the beginning of true faith is the end of anxiety.  George Mueller
