The Season
Just when we thought we had kicked germs out the door, that crazy lady waltzed back in. Fifth victim, down. Clare now has strep. And Luke is throwing up every time – every time – he eats table food. This is the junkiest Monday. Friends are miscarrying babies, undergoing testing for scary diagnoses with their kids and mourning the loss of a parent. Please God help us find the silver lining!
Maybe this will help…during the sickness nuttiness, I got to spend some sweet time with each of the kids. Can’t complain about that, can I? They’ve drunk and eaten their body weight in ibuprofen, Sprite and saltine crackers. There was one really sweet moment I caught between the biggest big and littlest little. I thought you’d enjoy.
Whatever your Monday brings you, may you be lifted up in knowing that today the sun came up. And, tonight, it will go down. And we will all get up and do it all over again tomorrow. I have some really awesome people in my life. For that, I am grateful. Eternally.
