Just a Thought

Jake was really sick last week. And I mean really sick. Poor kiddo. I spent three days worrying, cuddling, temp-taking, and cleaning. And not sleeping. It was terrible - for both of us. But through it all, I just couldn't stop thinking about how grateful I am for this blessing. I am so grateful that I was the one who got to take care of that sick little boy. Not anyone else. Me. Being a mom may not be all fun and games. And at times it can be really gross. But even when being the mom means cleaning up puke and holding your breath while the sickie insists on sleeping nose to nose, I wouldn't trade it for anything.
