Quarantined

Although I deal with allergies almost year-round, true sickness visits me very rarely. I'm very blessed with my health, but like most people, take it way too much for granted.

Well, I've been in the bed, literally sleeping, for the past 19 hours. My husband, who is gearing up for a triathlon this weekend, slept on the couch last night, hoping and praying that the sickness will pass him over this time.

It's definitely been a great reminder to me of some things that I am thankful for that I don't always attribute to God's mighty hand.
