I have a wonderful little family of 4. Daddy is Jacob
, Mommy is Jessica
, and our two little ones, Jordyn who is 4
, and Jeremy her little brother who is 2
.
We are probably getting started maybe a little too soon, but we are just sooo excited!
Jordyn is an amazing 4 year old. She has the sweetest soul and is very empathetic to others. She was diagnosed in June of 2012 with ALL (Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia) Pre-B cell. Our lives haven't been our own since that day, and I am not sure they ever will be. Jordyn is a super big helper at our house and always wanting to help out her mommy with anything she possibly can. She loves the color purple. Her favorite thing at the moment would be dressing up. Dressing up has been such a wonderful outlet for her since we have been stuck at home almost constantly since her diagnosis because her compromised immune system leaves her at a high risk for a life threatening infection. She loves princesses and Tinkerbell, and she is sooo excited to be able to meet (or if she gets the chance, to be) Ariel, Cinderella, or Rapunzel. She has not stopped talking about it since we learned she was going to get to make a wish. We are super excited to finally have something to look forward to other than hospital visits, chemo, and steroids...
This is a picture of her hospital stay last year. I think this was two days before she was officially diagnosed with cancer. Those first months were so hard... She felt so miserable and didn't even want to move because she hurt so badly.

Here is her most recent picture:
Jordyn's little brother Jeremy has had a really hard time dealing with Jordyn having cancer as well. He lost his playmate and friend for a few months when she was super sick, and he ended up spending a lot of time away from us when we were staying at the hospital and going to appointments. He wasn't even two yet, so it was super confusing and scary for him to go through.
He is an amazing little guy. He loves his sister and really looks up to her and wants to be just like her. She is his best friend and I am so grateful they were able to share such a good friendship during the really hard time we are going through. He is a busy kid, and always trying to get into everything... He tries so hard to be helpful though, and listens and tries to help people when he sees a need before even being asked.

And here is a picture of me:
We can't wait to get our dates for the trip and really get into planning for it! I just know it will be so good for our family and be good for us to get away. Jordyn could really use a boost of happiness too!
