Granna Saves the Day!

For the past few weeks, I have been running on empty- it seems like our family has been taking turns being sick and it has taken it's toll on me... I guess my mom could sense it because she called me Friday on her lunch hour and insisted she would come if I just said yes-- of course, we said yes since Luke has been fighting a cold, helping hands are never refused! Just after that phone call, I got a call from Luke's daycare saying he was running a fever and I needed to come pick him up- a trip to the pediatrician revealed that he has double ear infections from all of his cold congestion sitting in his head (this is his 3rd ear infection and looks like tubes are probably in his future). As we were waiting in the CVS parking lot to get medicine, I sat in the back seat trying to calm my screaming child with his bottle knowing full well he didn't want to suck a bottle with ears on fire. I resorted to singing "Jesus Loves Me", then broke into tears. Seems like at that moment, the song went: "Jesus loves me, this I know?? For the Bible tells me so." And with the second verse being a statement, I pulled myself together and faked a pep talk to both of us... Granna was on the way-- I could make it a few more hours! I did. Thank you Momma for helping hands and a full night's sleep... everything is clearer now! Jesus loves me, this I know!
