January 6, 2009

This is where you can find the latest happenings with our family.

I just realized that I have not updated this site since March 2008! I plan to upload new pics in our Photo Albums and create a colon cancer section dedicated to my story, before/during/after photos, and useful information about the disease, treatment and the side effects I experienced . In the meantime, feel free to visit my colon cancer journal at www.gracedelarosa.com/cancer.html.

Speaking of colon cancer, I am due for a round of medical procedures at the end of this month. I will post the results soon thereafter. This April 7th will mark my three-year anniversary of being cancer-free!

David no longer works as a commercial pilot with Comair. Thankfully, he stays busy with orders from the Navy Reserve. The kids and I missed him when he worked in El Salvador for a month-and-a-half with the Reserve and got home the week of Thanksgiving. Don't see any out-of-town trips any time soon, and for that I am glad. I'd like to have him home more often now that he no longer has to be gone for six months out of the year as in the past 12 years!

Armani is in her senior year of high school and turned 18 on Nov. 29, 2008. She recently got her driver's license (joy) and borrows my Explorer from time to time. I'm happy to report she is a responsible young lady with her newfound privilege.

Andrew is a 1st grader this year. He lost his front right tooth on 01/12/09 and just lost his front left tooth last night! So now, my cutie-pie has a large gap in his mouth and he can't wait to slurp spaghetti through the empty space! I believe the Tooth Fairy gave him $1 -- inflation, ya know.
