Moving up day 4th grade and Andre's 8th Grade Graduation June 19th,2009
How happy was Lilly to be able to make it to Moving up to Markham Day!Its like a 4th grade graduation ceremony because in our school district our kids go 5th-8th grade to Markham Place Middle School.Lilly was so proud when she recieved the STAR STUDENT AWARD for the whole 4th grade!for her spirit,determination and great attitude through her cancer diagnosis and treatment. There was not a dry eye in the house especially me!!! I was so blessed that I was able to share this day with my daughter. I am usually the mom who works and I never get to be with the class moms but they made me feel so special allowing me to see this special day for Lilly. It was so cute to see her sitting with her 2 best buddies from class Aidan and Grace.I swear the smile never left Lilly's face! Unfortunately we left right from school to go to RWJ for Chemo #3..but what a trooper Lilly was as she left all her friends to come fight the cancer battle again.
Last night we got to see my proud son Andre graduate from 8th grade. How handsome he looked in that tux! Lilly wore her wig and a black hat and looked adorable and stylish.If you know Lilly she not only is a social butterfly but has an adorable fashion sense.
I was a proud mama the last two days. These are the days we parents live for.. Cancer can't kill your dreams ...just make you want them so much more..Onto Chemo #3 ... Go Lilly Go!!!
