Sweet Sweet Reunion

One thing that Presley has missed the most is "Crewbee"! She asks and talks about him everyday. It has been 3 weeks since they have been together. Thank heavens for family during these trying times. Mom and Dad have had Crew full time in Southern Utah. They traveled up to SLC with me the night the pediatrician told me that we needed to be at Primary Children's the next day at 8:00 am. It was one of the darkest and hardest nights. Not knowing for sure what was going on with my baby, but knowing that Leukemia was most likely the diagnosis. Paul has been working in SLC and was already up here. My parents have been with us from the very beginning. I often wonder what I would do without my mother. Her positive attitude, and her ability to know what I need at every moment, is amazing. My mom has been so busy with other things on her plate, and she has dropped everything for me including missing work for more than 3 weeks already. I am so grateful that we have lived with my parents for the past 6 months so that Crew would not feel like he was being left with someone he was not comfortable with. Crew loves "Bampa" and "Grama-ma". It has been so hard to be away from Crew.  I'm not one that leaves my kids very often, but I have felt complete peace knowing that Crew is in a good place and that he is getting so much love and attention. My heart is heavy for him too. His world, just like ours, has been turned upside down.
Crew and Grandma came up to see us for Easter weekend. Smiles have been hard to come by these days for Presley. Only a brother like Crew can make it all feel better for a few days. Presley has really been feeling weak, and not up to much more than laying in bed watching movies. Crew could sense that sister was not feeling the best. He hopped right up on her bed and the next 5 mintures was one of the sweetest moments in motherhood. To see my two babies together smiling and loving on each other was just what my heart needed to feel. Crew knew he needed to be soft and would make a sound to let us know that he understood. We love you Crew and sure have missed that sweet little boy!

One of the sweetest moments. Love these babies SO much!
