With Every Sick Day Comes A.......

With every sick day comes a day with pains all over the body.
With every sick day comes extra garbage that needs to be taken out.
With every sick day comes an even higher pile of dishes in the sink.
With every sick day comes mounds and mounds of laundry.
With every sick day comes double the mail that must be read.
With every sick day comes a surprise.

My surprise was a husband that decided that the refrigerator needed to be cleaned.
My surprise was a son that gave up his video games to sit with me and rub my throbbing head.
My surprise was my other son that brought me his favorite "Teddy Bear" to comfort me.
My surprise was a clean garage on Monday morning.
My surprise was a family that really does care and knows the importance of giving to others.
My surprise is I am doing the right thing for my family.

My family is loud.
My family is busy.
My family is strong minded.
My family is loving.
My family is mine.
My family is perfect and I wouldn't change them.
