ONE DAY AT A TIME

As Mike and I were having breakfast and reading the news this morning, a song my parents used to play when I was a kid came to my mind, One Day at a Time, by Christy Lane.  Mike's parents used to listen to it when he was a kid too.

One of the lessons Mike and I have learned already is that we will let each day's good be good and each day's bad be bad.  So, Thursday and Friday were pretty bad, when we first learned and then confirmed UNO's omphalocele, but Saturday and today have been really good.  

We are doing really good.  Both of us have really had great lives, and we currently have a great life together.  If we embrace the good, then we can freely embrace the bad too.  Currently, we are holding out hope that the "bad" stuff will be a short little blip in an otherwise long, healthy, happy, great life with UNO.  And if things take a turn for the worse, we will be sad when we need to be sad, but we will be resilient and life will still be good, one day at a time.
