I have been going through some trying times lately due to some health issues that have evolved since my last surgery. I have good days and bad days. Today was a particularly difficult day. I can't pinpoint what set things off except that when you are in constant pain normal everyday situations can be difficult to cope with.
My sweet six year old noticed that I was struggling today. While working on her homework she stopped and walked across the room. She gently put her arms around me and said, "It's okay. Sometimes Mom's just have bad days. I love you!" That was exactly what I needed to hear at that moment, that someone loved me and that it was okay to have a bad day.
I squeezed her tight and whispered, "Thank you. I love you too!" Suddenly the cloud lifted and I began to smile again.
I am grateful for the angel that was sent my way today.
That was such a beautiful story...it brought tears to my eyes. How grateful I am that she was there to lift you up yesterday! I worry about you every day and hope my kids don't add to the trials to much. But please know they love you too!!!
