52 Blessings Project: Week #5

Sick, But Healthy Kids{Kobe asleep on the bathroom floor while he waited for the next wave of vomitting}

This week we've been passing around a stomach bug. Now we've added a head cold to it as well. No fun. Sleepless nights. Lots of laundry. Worrying who is going to fall next. Wondering if we will all be better for our trip to Disneyland next weekend. All this was getting me down because I didn't feel good and I felt totally unproductive this week.

But then I was reminded that while the kids are sick right now, they will get better. Things could be so much worse. Some kids do not get better for a very long time. This is temporary and for this reason I feel blessed. I am grateful to have kids that are healthy and pray that they will remain healthy. {Kobe now has red freckles from ruptured blood vessels due to some serious vomitting.}
