A few months ago, Brooke noticed a lump on her shoulder. It sprung up overnight. It continued to grow and become painful. She decided to have it removed last week. As her personal nurse, I was there.
A few weeks before the lump-removal, Brooke visited me in Des Moines. I refer to her lump as "Libby. Libby the lump." Since Brooke loves cookies from Great American Cookie Company, I surprised her with this. It says "Goodbye Libby."
Here is Libby on the day of the operation:
Brooke was embarrassed when I was taking pictures of her pre-op. I said, "Come on Brooke. It's for my blog!"
What remains of Libby:

Easter
What a weird Easter this has been. Mike and I stayed in Des Moines for the weekend. I was in Minneapolis on Thursday - Saturday with my sister (What was I doing there? You'll find out soon in a future blog). Our Easter Sunday started with church at 8:30, then we went to a breakfast buffet. We took a long nap and now Mike is outside landscaping our driveway. He is lining the driveway with brick and planting red tulips. He is becoming so handy. I am working tonight for a few hours... I wish I was with my family. I bet my Grandma D would still let me hunt for eggs even though I'm 26....
