hard...

This past week was hard. Scott was in the field and I've had sick boys. Will, just got a common virus... nothing bad. CJ on the other hand ended up in respiratory distress, was on a slew of medication, but is good now. 

Seeing CJ that sick and not being able to help him was hard. Having to hold him as he got two steroid shots and two antibiotic shots was hard. Having to hold him through countless breathing treatments was hard. Not being able to help Will rest was hard. Seeing him not smiley and knowing he hurt was hard. Hard, hard, hard...

But you know what, being a parent is hard. But you know what makes it worth it... getting to parent these two! They make all the hard moments worth it. And as I reflect on what I am thankful for, these guys are definitely at the top of my list. :)
