Happy Mothers Day!!

I cant but help to think of Mariska's heart donors family. I want to wish her a Happy Mothers Day. We will never forget her little one or their act of kindness that has let us have extra time to enjoy Mariska on this earth. Even if we never get a chance to learn anything about them, they are always in our hearts and prayers.


Thinking of your little angle. <3

All the little things...

Why does my heart still get sick when ever I see PCMC on my caller ID?! I hold my breath put on a smile and take the call. I know the day I dont force my self to be brave they will have icky news.

Mariska's Prograf levels are once again still not stable! They are a little to low *they like it to be with in a range, to hign will damage other organs. To low she can go into rejection* for this far out *less then 2 years* We're going from .85ml to 9.3mls. Then they want a level check with in 10 days. 

I layed down with her today, she cuddled up close gave me a hug and said nothing bad will ever happen as long as your with me mommy. Its the sweet things in life that make it better.  I guess being told not to go out the revolving doors by her self at pcmc really did scare her a little.   I so love this little girl and all her spunk!

Thank you Make-A-Wish!

I so failed to post we're going to Disney World!! Well we're back now. =D  We-had-a-BLAST. We stayed at Give Kids The World. Who gave us tickets to all the major parks.   I'll do a more detailed post about each day, Just wanted to get on here and say we're home!

Mariska's favorite thing on the trip was when Snow White give her a HUGE kiss on the forehead. It was so good to see her so happy and to hear so many giggles.   Thank you Make-A-Wish for giving us the chance to do something amazing!

Icky bug for all the girls/ clinic visit.

Mariska had picked something up at dance the week before we moved. Landing her and my self feeling pretty sick. Made packing/ moving and being a mom not that awesome.

We both finally got better. Then she picked up something a little different leaving us with a runny noses for 2 weeks and a cough thats going on 3! Kamiah ended up getting it too but lucky hers wasnt nearly as bad. Hard to teach a 4 year old not to cough on her sister and she cant touch her if shes coughed on her hands unil she washes them. With Mariska always in her face trying to make her laugh I was shocked we kept it from her for the first 2 weeks.

Shocking how much faster Kamiah recovers from being sick then Mariska. Mariska still has a little cough. *sigh if only the sick kids didnt go to dance and church* 


Mariska had a doctor visit almost 2 weeks ago... I didnt like the news and finally had to much going on. Dr M thought her tricuspid valve was leaking a hair more. Dr. T. didnt think it was. I'm praying it was just her cold that was playing tricks on us....*leaking is normaly the first sigh of rejection* So Dr. M ordered an ECG to make sure. Dont remember what it said but must not have been to bad, since We got chatting.  After we left Transplant team called to tell me her prograf level which is finally in a nice place. yay! And that if we wanted we could come back in 4 weeks and not 2. I keep forgetting to move it back so we're just going to go down on thursday. Kind of want a peace of mind on whats happening.

Since we just booked the plane ride to Orlando the day before clinc with our track record its only fitting something like this happens. ha! it always does. I thought we we're safe doing her trip so early and not waiting for Christmas.

Pray for her on thurday that the news is good and nothing to worry about.

House warming party/Make-A-Wish pays a visit!

We bought our selfs a house! I'm sure I told you but we're so happy and excited to have our own grass and drive way, That I cant help but to share the news again!

Mariska's Wish granters wanted to stop by and tell everyone the news that Mariska getting her wish to go to Disney World! But they wanted it to be a Surprise!!!! How on earth are we going to keep that a surprise?! We did it.  I broke and told Sam, haha hard to keep something that big from my other half. We decited to have a house warming party sure why not right since we just moved? hehe. Told the Grandparents they HAD to be there.. no if ands or buts. They thought it was weird but went along with it. Since we we're just getting over colds we thought we better keep the party small.

Mariska had fun showing family her room and all the other rooms in the house. =)


Also Make-a-wish called yesterday. Give kids the world the place we're staying looked at the ages in our party.. they knew Kamiah was young but didnt notice how young she is! Since my parents are coming along, *wanted some baby sitters and we had planned to go to Disney land last year at this time with them anyway* They said they would pay for my moms tickets! Crazy We're all pretty blown away by their generosity! <3 My dad said they are buttering her up so she will become a wish granter. I think it will work too. She would be perfect for it.

On to pictures!
