Time of Transition

Going through something right now. Feeling drained and overwhelmed with all that needs to be done and all that I want to do too. Today is my first day of summer vacation. Unfortunately, Nathan is sick with the stomach bug and high fever. At least that is what I think it is. Yesterday and last night I dropped everything to lay on the couch with him and cuddle. He has been nailed this month. We were up most of the night. He is big enough now to tell me when he is going to be sick so we pulled up a stool to the potty and waited. The way he looked at me with those confused eyes, how he sought comfort... We were so bonded that it was powerful. Of course, I don't want him to be sick, but in those moments I felt like a Mom, felt grateful to have that unmeasurable love for another person. So everything else will have to wait, because he is most important.

Oh, I guess I was a little hard on myself in my last post. I received some lovely feedback about the "Teach You Love" layout here and at some other sites where I post my work. I appreciate the boost to my confidence. I guess being unsure is just another testiment to how I can't really "see" things right now. I am going to ask for clarity in all areas of life right now! It will come.

  1. Aw, Stac... I hope he feels better soon. There's nothing worse than a sick child (like mine on my lap, now!)

    BTW, I love the Teach layout, too. I feel your slump, Sista, sometimes yourself is the hardest one to please!

    Thanks for your visit to my blog, too -
