London was a patient of mine about 5 years ago when I worked in-patient. She was diagnosed with an aggressive form of Leukemia and sadly lost her battle about a week before Christmas.
When you work with children, no matter what capacity, you aren't suppose to have "favorites". But I'll admit that there are some patients that managed to find that spot with me. London was one of them. Both her and her family are amazing people, and I am glad that I have been able to stay in touch with them. You can read London's Story HERE.
Ready to go! It was cold this morning! We wish we had our mittens!
The sweet lady we asked to take our picture, had a very difficult time fitting us all in! We are lucky she didn't completely cut out the girls!
Emma finally smiling after she realizes that she is with her friend Sophia! It really was like all the sudden she realized that she was there!
Me and Emma (who turned her head as soon as the picture was taken!) with Jenn, Maddie, and Kendal. Maddie was diagnosed with cancer when she was only a year and a half, and was roommates with London throughout their entire treatment. You might remember them from THIS post.
Sophia excited to be out of her stroller
Like always, we tried to get a picture of the girls together. And as usual, we couldn't get them to both look at the camera at the same time!
Notice Emma's leg in the air? She was using Sophia as a brace to pull herself up! Sophia wasn't so sure she liked this idea!
It was time to try and get a picture of Emma by herself, but she was more interested in eating the grass then having her picture taken!
We have another busy day tomorrow. Emma and I are meeting some of the girls I worked with at the hospital at the zoo. More pictures to come!

I hope you had fun at the zoo today. We had a great time at the walk even though we didn't officially walk. :)
