  1. Beautiful picture! You have a gorgeous family, inside and out, Libby! I'll be praying for your comfort and healing during your next round of chemo. You're an amazing woman for all you're going through and for hanging onto the knowledge that it's all in God's hands!

  3. Ava is beautiful and so are you and your hubs. Love the picture and I'm with Jen, I hope you will get to go every single time too....even if you don't want to so you can get it OUT OUT OUT! I hope you know you are being prayed for. I don't pretend to know what you must feel like, but I know we serve the same God and He is ALMIGHTY so I'm praying for Him to give you strength, courage and carry you EVERY step of the way as you fight this disease. Praying He can give you everything you need! Love to you and your precious family.

  5. I need to correct one of my sentences in my comment! Not praying he CAN give you everything you need because that's silly. I know he CAN. I pray He WILL give you everything you need! and on a different note.... Jen is the one who shared your blog with me. Jen and I went to UK and met there. I have read your blog from the beginning and I feel like I know you. It's funny how the world wide web can do that. I guess since we both have little ones and are first time moms and young wives and love Jesus that I just feel like I must know you. Although I can't relate to the cancer part, I can relate to the mommy part and the wife part. I read every word and I have such a connection and such a heart for you. I keep reading and thinking that I could be the one with cancer...but you are instead. I don't understand it, but I want you to know that you have already touched my life in so many ways and SOOOOOO many others. I don't know what I would do if I was the one with cancer. I feel like I would be angry at God, but you are not. God IS using you and your cancer for HIS glory. I just wish there was no suffering involved although I know that Christ doesn't say we won't suffer in the life. Anyways, I'm rambling and I know you don't have time to read my rambling. I love you my sweet sister in Christ and your struggles do not go without prayer or without Christ inspiration to so many that come into contact with you. You cancer is not being wasted. Thank you for challenging me to better and to love and trust Jesus more and His perfect plan for our lives.

  8. Libby, that photo is hilarious! The look on Ava's face - those are my folks and they are kissing AGAIN! They do that all the time. It's embarrassing really. Do you think they'll grow out of it?

    Those are the kind of remarks we get from our 5 and 10 year old when we kiss...only they go all out and say eeeew gross as well.

    Keep kissing!

    Oh - and you know the saying - God only made a few perfect heads...the rest HE covered with hair. Enjoy having a perfect head for a while!

  11. Hi Libby. You don't know me from Adam, but I got linked into your blog from my college best friend. She's originally from Virginia and her old youth leader sent her your info. I have laughed with you and cried with you on this blog. I love the new photo. Ava is an absolute doll. We are all here cheering for you and your family every step of the way.

  16. The picture is beautiful...great job Sara. Libby , you and Jus look great, and Ava looks like she just saw her Pop Pop swim by the window with a life jacket on...(you had to be there). I had a great time visiting. It is always so much fun and so relaxing when we all get together. Hug Jus and Ava for me, I miss you all already!
    Back to the picture...great paint job on that headboard. The River House is fantastic.

  19. Libby! I literally said the same thing! OMGosh you guys are so gorgeous! That picture is gorgeous and you are soooo lucky to have Sara as a sister in law, she is so talented. Keep your spirits up, glad to see your ANC is back up, that just means less time for the cancer to do its thing and more time for the chemo to work!
