Deep In The Forrest

Tomorrow is my 2nd "Blogiversary". That's right, Deep In The Forrest turns 2 years old. Hard to believe... they grow up so fast.

Dad's going home today so I am going to pick up Mom and take her back up to the hospital. We really appreciate all the positive thoughts, prayers and your concerns and kind words through the whole week. I only have the couple seconds to post this, so I have to be on my way. This is good news, and I'm glad he won't have to be there longer than he has... Once again... Thank you all, you Rock!!!
