It has been too long since we've posted. First of all - Keira is doing great. Her monthly blood and urine tests are completely normal. Her most recent CT shows no change - this continues to be wonderful news. Her doctor told us at the last visit that he didn't want to see her for three months - that was great news to Keira who now recognizes the parking garage at the hospital and lets us know that she isn't pleased to be there.
We can hardly believe that it has been over a year since her diagnosis. In many ways it seems like so much longer. March 9th, one year from the date of her diagnosis, we had a wonderful little celebration honoring Keira's life and all that God has done for us. Thanks Suzy! We are so grateful to be together as a family, enjoying the wonder of life through the eyes of a soon to be two year old.
Keira had a wonderful Easter this year complete with egg hunts and bunnies. She discovered that plastic eggs were fun to shake - and even more fun to break open and eat!
Keira is growing and changing daily. She loves the playground and asks to go daily - make that multiple times a day. She will even tell us which one she prefers - "blue slide playground", "green playground" "barn playground". She has developed a love of singing and has a special place in her heart for "Old Macdonald". She is not afraid to be heard singing E-I-E-I-O at the top of her lungs. She loves to laugh and will ask for "mo" (more) of anything she finds amusing. Yesterday, Jason said "OW". This was one of the funniest things she had ever heard. We hope this doesn't mean anything.....
We will return in June for more tests. Until then we plan to enjoy watching Keira grow. We will try to be better about posting updates.
Jason, Erin, and Keira Grace

This might be the most random comment you have ever gotten but I can't help but believe that God led me to your page for a reason. My name is Keira Grace (spelled the same way, which is so rare!) and I just created a blog tonight. I wanted to see if my blog would come up on Google so I typed in my name and clicked on the link but needless to say your page was not what I was expecting! I have tears in my eyes after spending the past 30 minutes reading your posts and looking at the absolutely beautiful pictures of your daughter. If nothing more, I would like you to know that I will be praying for her and for your family. She truly is a blessing!
Keira is just adorable in her Easter photo!!
