What I know for sure…

Two sick boys.

Up late finishing classwork for my Web Design class.

2 am. finally going to bed…BUT…

One son STILL has high fever…Time for more Tylenol…THEN…

He goes to restroom. Diarrhea and projectile vomiting simultaneously (yep! you read that correctly).

Mom (me) realizes he just vomited the last of the Tylenol, plus, he hasn’t had an appetite for two days, and, we’re out of Pedialyte AND bleach (for vomit).

Immediate Wal-mart run (still after 2 am–don’t worry, boys are with grandma “the blessing”).

Rush home. Sons sleeping soundly.

Take temp. Clean vomit. Clean AND mop bathroom.

Soaks in tub.

Goes to bed wondering what just happened. Thanking God for His strength to get it done.

4:30 am. and I determine, yet again:

God is

But, tonight was different.  Tonight my boys were surprisingly silent. I don’t know if it was the amazing “breakfast…

  • Word Wisdom

    I was reading Romans and just started thinking about Paul and his life. I began to wonder why God used a man who persecuted Christians to speak to Christians through his writings with letters that make up almost half of the New Testament. And I had a realization… God often uses what we used to…

    That moment your 5 YO keeps asking you to get him a snack and you assure him he can get it (because you’re in the middle of a project and don’t feel like getting up). He asks. You ignore. He asks. You ignore. He says, “Fine. I’ll get it myself.” He does. He’s shocked. You…
