Last day of school

The school year is over and what a school year it was. Some what stressful, due to the fact that Makenzie hated math and constantly screamed about doing it everyday. Next year we are trying something totally different for math, Other then that she did pretty well.
Braxton did well in math but had a hard time with reading so I was constantly battling him with that. Here is to a fun less stressful summer!!

9 years post transplant

It has been 9 years of a roller coaster adventure. Open heart surgery, heart transplant, multiple caths, 2 pace makers, a gtube, Cardiac arrest, multiple hospital stays, and 10 life saving daily medications. I can't lie it is tough but I wouldn't change my baby girl for the world. She is my hero, and the light of our family. She shows us what courage, strength and faith is.
We are so grateful for her donor, and the family for the chose they made in such a very difficult decision. They will always hold a special place in our hearts.
Every year we celebrate her donor angel by making a heart cake and sending red balloons up to heaven to honor him or her.
We love you Makenzie and cant wait to see what the future holds for you!
