Kerstin and Annie tried a new recipe for Monster Cookies! Kerstin got plenty of dough on her fingers and had to eventually lick them clean! We rolled the cookie dough in a variety of chopped up candy bars or chocolate chips. We decided to rename the cookies "Clean out the Candy Basket Cookies." After we finished baking, it was time to clean up. Annie taught Kerstin one of her favorite activities as a child. Do you remember this Grandma Clarice? Uncle Brian? Whenever Grandma mopped the floor, it was time to play train with all of the chairs. Kerstin decided her train was going to the North Pole. Polar Express anyone?
Kerstin is very excited to be going back to Omaha tomorrow to get her central line taken out. She is hoping to be able to visit Abby at Children's while we are there. Thanks for all of your messages, words of encouragement, and especially your prayers. Don't forget to add Abby to your list. Have a blessed day!

I remember lots of chair trains but don't remember where they were going. I'm sure they were not the Polar Express. They were more likely The Little Engine That Could. I also remember that chair trains were a good way to get help moving the chairs.
That's great that you will be getting your central line removed! So glad to hear that. I'm sure you were too.
The cookies sound delicious. Monster cookies make lots so do you have some to share?
Love, Grandpa Gene and Grandma Clarice
Hi Kerstin,
By the time you read this maybe your line will be out!! Elise and I are doing a counts dance for Abby everyday. Elise has a very cute dance ... she sways her arms back and forth and bounces up and down. Then we count as high as we can. Since she's only one she can only count to nine- but if we do it often enough that will be a lot of counts!! Take care sweet girl, and remember Jesus is right by your side giving you big hugs!
Hugs and prayers for a great day-
Julie Anderson
Kerstin and Annie, that chair train sounds very familiar (must be an Arlington thing!!!), I remember that happening at the Day house a few bazillion times!!! So glad to see that you got your line out, you're on the downhill slide now!!! Love, Niki (6th floor)
