Sure Ali - just send the plane ticket -- well -- maybe send two, and we will both be on your doorstep. You don't know how many people are in awe when I tell them about Danica's cleaning frenzies. There are so many people that want "a Danica".
Trust me, my boys are not cleaners at all. However, they are both excellent cooks. My husband's mom used to cater, and the kids learned a lot from her. Adam is really good at trying new things, and Matthew is a really good baker. They cook very different though - Adam is really "low fat" and Matt loves to use butter.
Hope to hear good news from all of you soon.
By the way, I am resisting taking Danica's blood this week. I will not check her until Monday when we start the Decadron. Normally, she should be lower than 15, so if her number is better than that on Monday, then it would probably be due to the Decadron kicking in. We will know by the weekend how she is doing count wise -- if she has dark circles under her eyes, and cleans like crazy, then that is a good sign that she is low.
I am keeping my fingers crossed that maybe she will a little higher than normal for day 11.
