For the most part living in a house full of teenagers is a emotional roller coaster. And then there are times that I realize the years of training and raising of these children into young adults does occasionally pay off.
My eldest has been an awesome helper this week. I let her do whatever she wants during the day and a few times a day she brings me food. And even better . . . she can do the grocery shopping. Give her the list. Give her the money. Send her inside. She texts me when she is finished. Awesome.
The best part of all is that all I have to do is tell her I need Diet Coke and she buys not one pack or two packs, but three packs!! She was fearful that I would run out. Now that’s a good kid.
I am thankful for Madie this week. I am still home and still exhausted. Hopefully tomorrow we will go back to the beach. This sickness thing stinks. Getting better at home has been a huge blessing, but its time to reunite with the family. So I pray tomorrow we will get there!
