Birthday Party


It had been a while since I posted anything. I thought that I would update you with all that has been going on with the Norton family. First, as most of you know, I took mom to get her chemo treatment last Monday and she was sent home without her chemo dose. It seems that her blood count was too low. This is something normal. The good news is that she gets the week off. She is quarantined to her house. A good excuse to do nothing all day.

Also, my baby boy is now 3! I can't believe that I am the mom of a Kindergartner and a 3 year old. We had a good party. Everyone came over last Sunday and my dad did a shrimp boil. (My first thought was YUCK!) Just the name sounds bad. Dad brought over the turkey fryer and boiled in water: potatoes, corn on the cob, 3 kinds of sausage, shrimp, and some seasoning. It was so good. We put paper towels out on the table, poured out the contents of the fryer, and literally dug in. I made a Spiderman cake for his birthday, which we managed to eat all but 2 pieces. A couple of our friends came over with their new baby girls. They are so precious. It was an all around great day!

Thank you all for you continued prayers. We appreciate all of them!
