The tenderness of a child

What is a little girl to do when her mommy gets sick? Exactly what her mommy tells her to do when she is ill, lay down and rest right? Melanie is too sweet...Sunday night I had the worst lower back and abdominal pain ever. It left me curled up in the fetal position praying that it wasn't the flu because if it was, Melanie would suffer badly. Jason said that if I wasn't better by morning that he was taking me to the ER. So, off we went Monday morning. I have a kidney stone - or so they think. Pain Killers and lots of water and rest is about all you can do until they pass. So when we got home, Melanie came into my room and pulled the blankets up over me, patted me on the legs and back, and told grandma and daddy to "ssshhh, mommy is sleeping" she then proceeded to leave and close the bedroom door behind her. My little sweetie - taking good care of her mommy...i am truely blessed.

I am thankful for Lynda and Jason who have helped me out the last couple of days...I sure hope it passes soon. I really want to go on vacation.

Yes, Joanie I am going to assume it passed as I have had no more issues and was able to go on a lovely vacation of exploring the mountains with Jason and Melanie.
