Happy. Heart.

The last couple of days have been amazing.

Heavenly Father heard the cry of a weary, tired mother 

pleading in behalf of her child

and reminded her that all is well and 

that her baby is still there.

Evalette has been her normal, happy, sweet self since Thursday.

She has loved playing with her brothers.

She laughs with them and at them,

follows them around (crawls after them),

and allows them to touch her and pick her up.

They are happy and so am I.

She is eating all day long and I am pretty sure has gained weight!

She glows and smiles from ear to ear.

Instead of crying, we hear her laughing all the time.

She has more energy.

And is content to play on the floor with her toys

while mommy tries to catch up on life.

 She loved the fireworks we did on Pioneer Day.

And so did everyone else.

She clapped and clapped.

She just learned to do high 5's and loves to high 5 all day long.

She has been walking while holding our hands.

And she loves her shoes.

Maybe she will walk soon.

She does start another phase of chemo on Friday, 

but hopefully she doesn't regress.  

Last Thursday we found out that she didn't make count.

ANC ZERO once again.

It has to be 750 to start the phase.

So the beginning of phase 4 got pushed back another week.

Good and bad.

On Friday, she was flirting with a low grade fever.

Between the boys and I's prayers,

her fever never reached the point where she needed to go to the hospital.

She was happy, eating, and seemed normal.

Heavenly Father heard our prayers again.

All weekend she stayed in the 99-100 degree range.

Not super high, but higher than normal.

So we spent time as a family.

She loved the bike rides.

And we played out in the rain.

Today, after having 7-10 poopy diapers a day for over a week and 

her slightly higher than normal temp, I called the hospital.

Tomorrow we will find out if she has C-diff.

But all in all, our baby girl is happy.

She is well. 

And she is smiling and laughing again.

This momma has a happy heart!!!
