We've spent a lot of time in this waiting room the last few years. This time the doctor told us that all the scans came back clear, and he is no longer 'in remission' but he is now cancer free! It's been five years so no more yearly scans and monitoring are needed! The doctor shook his hand and said it's been a pleasure treating him, but he hopes he never has to see him again! 😊 We told the kids when we got back to the house and we all celebrated! God is so good!
The day the kids left for home we all went out for an early breakfast, I hugged them good-bye at the restaurant then headed to work. It was a 12 hour day, overseeing a local private school's graduation ceremony at our church.
Rehearsal began at 9am, then class speakers and the choir rehearsed throughout the day, and the ceremony was in the evening. I took this picture from their social media page -
We estimated about a thousand people were there and once everyone was gone and the busses left with all the seniors for their all-night grad party, I headed home.
For now I want to wish all the dads a Happy Father's Day.

Well, I just spent w-a-a-ay too long looking for more current pictures of Chuck and the girls. 😕 I know I have more around here somewhere.
Oh well. I'll write about my time in San Diego soon. I hope you all have a wonderful rest of your weekend!

What wonderful news to be cancer free! PTL! How nice that your church facilities can be used for King's graduation ceremonies. Enjoy your time with your sister in San Diego!
That is wonderful news. It's not easy when family has to return home. Way to go on helping with the graduation. Wow, that is a large crowd. Glad you went to be with your sister for her surgery. Safe travels and hope her surgery goes well. Sweet Father's Day photos.
Hallelujah! What a wonderful diagnoses to receive. No more cancer. Those are beautiful words. I enjoyed all of the photos of the fathers in your life and the girls too. Take care and prayers for your trip.

Hallelujah!! Glad for Chuck's good news. PC is cancer-free, too. Thank You, God.
Did you get a family picture of some sort when everyone was together recently? We are trying to arrange sweet 16 pictures for my granddaughter while we are in Florida on vacation.
Oh, I guess you DID go back for your sister's surgery after all. I've been reading in reverse order or vice versa, so I'm confused. Anyway, I am so happy for Chuck's good news! Totally Cancer FREE is the BEST news ever! Praise God! Glad you also had a good visit with your kids as well. You've been REALLY busy! Hope all is well. Blessings to you and yours.
Hooray for Chuck's great health news! Love that the doc said I hope I never see you again. I'm enjoying the throw back photos. I'm trying to get caught up on blog reading. the grad party prep was exhausting and time consuming. Happily we will be enjoying leftovers for a long long time. Maybe I'll freeze some of the BBQ chicken.
