Lexi has been feeling a little under the weather the past couple of days. She has a cough and the beginning of an ear infection. Last night when we were all three piled on the couch watching a Christmas show, Lexi said to me, "You don't get sick because you're mommy." She's right, moms and dads can't get sick (or at least we don't get the day off when we are sick) because we are always taking care of her no matter how we feel. It is such a blessing to never "be sick!"
Sometimes when life seems hard, sad, or stressful, I like to just stop for a moment and find something happy or peaceful. This evening, Lexi and I were driving home and we noticed the beautiful sunset. I stopped so we could take a picture on my phone. When I look at the sky and it looks like this, it makes me think of the loved ones we have lost and are now in Heaven. Instead of feeling sadness, I feel comfort they are in their forever home in the arms of Jesus. I'm thankful to have to ability to remember and the faith to feel comfort. - Posted using BlogPress from my iPhone
