We hosted a fundraiser for Reagan at our new studio and were so thankful for everyone who turned up to support her.
At one point every single table in the studio was filled and I was a bit frazzled and a bit overwhelmed, but most importantly I was incredibly happy and humbled by the all the kindness and love in my life. New and old friends, from near and far, from school and former jobs, new and old classmates – all of them dear to us – arrived to paint, meet Reagan and to support our family.
How lucky we are to know such kindness, to feel so much love, to be the recipients of so much goodness. Thank you to everyone who came out that day!
I was able to snap just a few pictures before it got too busy. I didn’t get everyone, but I really appreciate everyone who was there.
The smiles from these cousins is everything!
Reagan treatment update: She has started another four weeks of chemo. Her body is responding well. No spinal taps scheduled and she is able to eat some and rest. That girls kicks ass!
It sucks to see her in pain. I hate it. It makes me sick to my stomach and I have to fight back tears.
…And then Reagan, Annabelle and Gwyneth find their groove together. And they laugh. They laugh so hard together and they are always smiling. There is so much good when they are together. And they never want to leave each other. They always want a little more time to play. I am so grateful they have each other. They are good. They are really, really good and that makes my heart full.
