sickness and answered prayers.

There is a cold or something raging through my home. My son, my husband and myself have all been plagued with it since last night. We have all been miserable, but there is still so much good in our lives.

1. I praise God for sleepless nights with a sick child. I would rather have a hundred sleepless nights with my child than a lifetime without a child. I am so thankful to be a mother.
2. I praise God for my husband's helpfulness with our sick child. It is so much easier to deal with sickness as a team.
3. I praise God for answered prayers. He answered a prayer in our lives today and I am very thankful. His answer came in a way that was unexpected, but perfect. (As always.)
