{with Thanksgiving} Day 17: fresh start

Yesterday I was pretty darn excited that we were able to get dressed and make it to Mass on time (a rarity when Michael is out of town).   

All week we've had terrible sore throats, coughs, and runny noses, so we just wanted to stay in bed.  I was praying for a miracle to cure us all with a splash of patience.  Please dear Lord, hook me up with an IV of patience. Please. Begging. 

Nope, instead, after church I lost Emilia in the sea of people in the fellowship hall.  I was chatting away with my cousin who just moved to Nashville (small world/big familia).  One of Emilia's preschool teachers found her on the church steps with hot tears and a big donut in her hand. She thought we left her! Ay-yi-yi!!

Thankful for a new week.  So much to be grateful for in this beautiful life of sick kids, arguments, and no food in my fridge.  Later today I have a whopper of a Thanksgiving.
