Over One Year Cancer Free!

We are long overdue for an update on our boy!

Health Update

First, an update on health! Ellis continues to visit his oncologist quarterly (down from monthly!) for check ups. Chances of relapse continue to shrink as time goes on, so we are increasingly thankful for every “all clear” visit!

Ellis has grown several inches this year and shows no signs of slowing down. We have hit a year and a half mark since finishing chemo and we are grateful for every day Ellis continues to be cancer free!

Life Update

As of this week, Ellis has finished First Grade! He stayed busy with a home school co-op, an Awana church program, and just finished his first few months of acoustic guitar lessons.

Back in September, we had a chance to fly to Northern California for Ellis’s Make a Wish Trip. It was an unforgettable trip and we’ll be sharing more on that soon!

For now, we hope you enjoy a few photos from the last few months!
