Exhausted!!!

Today I am exhausted! I have been up the last two nights with a sick kid. I am also Grateful!!! I am so glad that I am blessed to be this little persons mother. At around 5 this morning as I am sitting there on my sons bed with his head in my lap I was thinking about how tired I was (since I had been up since about 3am and hadn't gone to be until 11:30) I was also thinking about how good it made me feel that he wanted me! He could sleep better knowing I was there with him. I tried going back to bed several times but he would cry and wake up and then throw up again. so I stayed in his room with him and rubbed his back and just let him sleep in my lap. I was remembering how much better it made me feel when I was sick and my own mother did those things for me. SO yes I am tired and yes I do wish I got more then 3 1/2 hours of sleep last night but I am also so glad that I can be the one he wants, the one that will make him feel better. I am so blessed to be that person! Thanks you Tolson for helping me be the best mom I can be! I love you!!!

  2. I am amazed at how, when I think I couldn't possibly give anymore... That is the thought that goes threw your head.... Gratitude. Gratitude to be where you are. I know that feeling and I am grateful for the Spirit that gives it to us, when we can't give anymore.
