About Us
Glenn and I have been married for ten spectacular years. We recently moved to Saudi Arabia, which is obviously very far away from both of our families. We keep this blog updated so we can stay close to our friends and fam and to keep a record of our family adventures. Glenn is enjoying his new job and I am loving being a stay-at-home mom. We have two sweet little boys, Tate and Finn and two darling twin baby girls, Taryn and Kenna. We love them to pieces. We also love date nights, good movies, good food, and being with each other.

Ode to Zofran

A professional poemster I am not. But we're pretty grateful for Zofran around here, especially of late, so I think it deserves an Ode. Here it is:

Zofran you're the coolest drug that we've seen
To help us get better when we're feeling green.
You're the best drug there is, there's simply no doubt
For curing us from every throwing up bout.

The pregnancy ickies are sure not much fun.
Stomach muscles get a workout before each day is done.
Radiation is a mess. There's not much that's pleasant.
Even the instant weight loss is not a welcome present.

But no matter how awful those nausea waves become
Just one tiny pill brings the barfing to none.
Oh Zofran, we love you. You're our favorite pill.
Thanks for all the love when we're feeling ill!

Thanks for all of the prayers and thoughts this past week. Glenn is feeling so much better. Not 100% but so much better than those first couple of days. There are a few side effects that could start this week...hopefully he won't get those. The nausea is much more under control with the Zofran, thank heavens. So long as we can keep getting refills we're in much better shape. Just two more weeks! Thanks again everyone!

Love the poem...and glad something is taking the edge off. Thank you also for the darling clothes you left for us! We came home and the girls tore into them and wouldn't take off the dresses. I hid them to keep clean for church :) We love them. So thoughtful of you both. Glad you had a good time in Andover and can't wait to see you all at turkey time! Keep fightin' the good fight, Glenn!

Zofran is amazing, isn't it? My friend used to joke that he was going to name his first daughter Zoe Francis in honor of the drug that got him through chemo. Hang in there, Glenn!
