Thankful for help

Since early Saturday morning, a stomach virus has invaded our home. Ava was sick from 12 am Saturday until about 5 pm today. It was pitiful. I woke up feeling yucky and have been sick since about noon. Eli came home from Pa and Nanny's after getting sick around 6 pm. Three out of five and it ain't been easy. But in times like these you see how blessed you are. My husband has taken such good care of us, seriously, he is such a man of service. I can't imagine doing this alone. Also thankful for my Mama for helping even when I told her I didn't want her to get sick by coming over until Jason got home from church. I guess the motherly instinct to care for their children overrides care for yourself no matter how old they are. Noah has been at their house all weekend and told me it was like "vacation" again. I pray protection over all my family against this yucky virus. 30 days of thankfulness will resume when this passes but today I am thankful for helping loving hands in time of need.
