Today marked a great parenting win for me. Madelyn stayed home from school today and was at her Gamma's house all day. She woke up complaining of a sore throat. Took her to PAA and thank God the culture was negative for strep. Tonight she was having trouble breathing through her nose and was whining about how she couldn't go to sleep. After about an hour of listening to her and her coming downstairs, I had the idea to make her some hot tea. I knew she liked tea and I made a big deal about how it was medicinal and would calm her down. After enjoying her tea and finishing a House Hunters with Mom and Dad, I tucked her in and she was asleep in no time. I have to remind myself that it's the little things with her.
PG update: Cara has had ZERO energy for the last three weeks. It's a lot to keep things going as we are a team and I feel like sometimes my teammate is on the bench. She had a uncomfortable night last night with the rupture of an ovarian cyst.
Quote for day: God always pays for what he orders!
Thanks for my gift today God!
Your child,
JG
