So Grateful

My husband is so amazing!!

On Friday my mom asked if I would ride with her to the west side of town to go and visit my Grandma. I told her that I would if Jason was OK with watching the kids. He said he would, so I planned to go... Well all night Friday night Mila had been running fever and would not sleep. Jason was up most of the night with her (while he let me sleep) and still told me to go with my mom that he would be fine. I was hesitant on going, but he was insistent that I go. I went and was so glad that I was able to. She is not expected to live very much longer and to be able to visit with her probably for the last time was truly a blessing. She can't communicate very well, but she recognized who was there with her and didn't want us to "run off" when it was time for us to leave. My heart just breaks for her. She is so frail and seems to be in so much pain. I just hope that she gets to go "home" soon.

By the time that I had returned home Jason had all of the kids bathed, the house cleaned, (he was mopping my floor when I walked in the door) and then he made dinner all while he had a very grumpy and sick baby and two other kids that wouldn't stop fighting all day, but he didn't ever complain. I am so grateful for him and just want him to know.
