In Sickness and in Health...

So I love the weekends. I stay at home with the kids so the weekends are not super different than our day to day routines except that Tony is home (and of course no preschool!). It's just so much more fun when he's here. Not just because I can get out and do things on my own, or that he helps so much with the kids (thought definite perks), but just all of us together makes our weekends special - even if all we are doing is hanging out. Well, this weekend Tony was sick. I mean sicker than I have seen him in a long time. He has/had the flu I think, so this weekend was not so fun for us. On top of it, Walker woke up w/a fever + vomiting Friday night and has had it since then and Jordan took it on last night. Walker has not slept in 3 nights. The nurse I spoke with this morning thinks it's a fever virus that should be ending tomorrow, with Jordan a couple of days behind. As hard as it is to see my babies (and husband) sick, I have tried to serve them with a Christlike attitude. I know I am far from doing that well, but I am trying. I must say, there is a blessing in holding a sick child and knowing that your arms and kisses are all that can make him feel better. It is something to be thankful for that I am able to care for them when they need me.
