Hope everyone had a great Christmas! We certainly did! It was a bit of a different Christmas, but it was great to have Mom home. We opened our stockings and then went off to get Mom. She seemed very happy to come home. After lunch she went over to the sink and started doing the dishes! Dad said that she didn't have to do the dishes but her reply was, "too bad" Then we convinced her to go have a nap before everyone came for dinner. Thanks Grandma and Auntie for the meal!!!!!!!!!!!!! It was good! Mom said she had a great night in her own bed. We are bringing her home again later today for 2 nights this time! We are planning a fun movie night tomorrow with our new popcorn maker.
Thanks for all the Christmas wishes, presents and baking! We did manage to bake our favourite cookies 2 days before Christmas though. Have a great holiday everyone, and happy new year!!!!!
Love,
Jen and family

Good news
Mom and Dad met with the doctor yesterday he said mom could come home on Christmas and stay the night. Me and Jen met with the social worker today. Hope will be crazy and happy when Mom comes home. Tomorrow is the last day of school and my class is doing chapel, I'm a shepherd. Me and Jen are looking forward to lots of Christmas fun at school tomorrow. After that we have to finish getting ready for Christmas.
We will try to keep you posted.

An update......finally
As mom would say, "Sorry we disappeared off the face of the earth again."
First we should tell you that mom is doing alright and has continued to improve over the past few weeks. Dr. S says that the seizure effects took a long time to wear off because of where the tumor is. Moms up and walking around. Personally I think that soon the 6th floor might not be a long enough lap for her! She's also able to visit more, just not during her afternoon nap. If you do visit, please leave a note so we know you came because she might not remember to tell us. Mom and Dad will meet with Dr. S on Wednesday, so we'll try to keep you posted.
Oh right, we should tell you a few reasons (or are they excuses?) why we've been so late about this. Well I was singing with the WSO as well as our regular Christmas concerts. Plus a school concert for me and Kris, a piano recital with my piano class. And the best one, Kris and I curling with frozen turkeys. Oh and then there was Christmas shopping to be done.(thanks Dad for getting us to all this stuff and thanks to all the people at Dad's work who are helping him so he can do this for us!!!)
A very big thank you for all the flowers, visits, baking and everything else!! A special thank you to those of you that sleep over with Mom, visit her at meal times and help us out with Hope and with getting us places. We really appreciate it!!!!!! And we can't forget our friends and family that have come from far to see us.
As always thanks for keeping us in your thoughts and prayers.

Jen and family
