If you saw the post-it that I had on my blog all week, then you know that I had special work to do. I had the week all planned out to really concentrate during school hours and get it all done.
Monday
My agenda: Work on project.
What happened: Girly wakes up vomiting and continues all day.
The result: No work gets done, but I am there to comfort my daughter when she needs me.
Tuesday
My agenda: Make up for a lost day and work on project even harder.
What happened: Girly is still too sick for school, but well enough to talk all day.
The result: No work gets done, but I’m glad that I helped her to feel better.
Wednesday
My agenda: Take a well Girly to school, puppy to daycare and really lock down to work on project. It’s midweek and I can still get in 3 good days of work if I really concentrate.
What happened:
9 hours in the ER.
The result: No work gets done. For 9 hours I was cold, uncomfortable, hungry, tired and worried. But I was blessed to be there. Blessed to hold her hand, distract her from the needles, watch old Full House re-runs, help her pee in a cup and smooth her hair while she falls asleep.
There is no doubt about it; being her mother is number one on my agenda always.
(She’s fine now.)

Our babies….they are such joy even when they are sick. I pray for a quick recovery for your daughter, and some rest for you my friend.

I’m so glad your daughter is feeling better. Sick children are the worst. We can’t heal them. All we can do is hold their hands, rub their heads, and pray they get better quickly.

You couldn’t have written this truer to form. Being a mother is one of the toughest jobs, full of unexpected challenges. Yet on the other end the greatest honor and priviledge.
