My Heart

"Thank you that Mommy doesn't go to heaven."

Taken out of context, I wonder if this prayer from my 5-year-old could be received as a boy begging God to send his mom somewhere else, but I know this is just Ryan's way of praying that I stay around on earth for a long time.  He has told me over and over that he doesn't want me to go to heaven and that I need to not be sick.  I'm trying, buddy.  I'm trying.

This morning, my 3-year-old came up to me to exclaim that "your boo-boos" are gone!!!  (My port site has cleared up.)  "You're not sick anymore!," he gathered, and was not happy about being wrong.  "But, you can't die.  You are my heart.  I love you!  You can't die!!!"

The oldest gets things a little better.  "Please bless that Mom can beat this cancer and get better soon."

These boys are my heart and a huge reason to fight!
