Kait Kait's 3rd Birthday

A few weeks ago Kaitlyn turned 3!! Praise God!! She has been going strong and having so much fun! We tried to make her day (March 30Th) as special as can be......
We started the day with an old family tradition of birthday pancakes and boy does she love those!!
As soon as we could get dressed we headed down to the mall for her first present. Birthday earrings! In order to get them she paid the lady with her most prized possessions.....HER BINKY'S!! We didn't expect the strong determination to do what needed to be done, but again our little feisty one past that box over and said ok mommy I want to get my ears pierced....
To dry the tears the best way a Daddy knows how, we headed over for a nice lunch and a big birthday Sunday... The party kept going through the night (she would have it no other way) with close family and friends over for some cake and presents.
Kaitlyn will continue to blow Eric and I away with her love for life and people. Around her Mommy and Daddy and Sister have all been sick and she still stays strong. To say that we feel God daily working in our little girl is an understatement!! Thank you for all who continue to pray and support us!!

As far as treatments go she is still going in once a month and taking oral chemo at home! She is so wonderful with her pills every night! It truly is a family event as we cheer her on each night. The appointments have gone well and it feels we have entered an new normal in the Cotter home. It's different than before but feels normal and ok. We feel so confident that God will be beside us each and every day, every time we are stopped and asked how she is we love to share the new ways she is making us smile. We will continue to do our best and let you know how this cute little feisty girl brightens up each day!!
