Blessed Among Mommas

Yesterday I woke up with a terrific migraine headache. I took aspirin, had some coffee, had a muffin and a glass of milk, but nothing helped. In fact, I mostly just got sick to my stomach the more I tried to get rid of the headache. I told the kids we were just going to have to be late to VBS. And if we didn't make it to VBS, then at least I hoped to get them to swim lessons by 11 am. This Thursday was particularly difficult, because we're going from VBS to swim lessons to gymnastics all between 9 and 1:30.

Unfortunately the headache was so bad that I cried a little in front of the kids. It has happened before, and they know my headaches are killers. The sad part is that there is nothing the kids can do except try to stay quiet and let me lie in bed for awhile.

So Merrilee, ever the compassionate one, made a card for me. She loves to make cards, and I love to receive them, but I have to say of all the cards she's ever made for me, this one touched me the most.




Thank you, Sweet Girl. I love you.
