Thanks, Mom

As I mentioned in a previous blog, everyone around here has been sick. Jake, then Justin, then Josh, and now me:) Everyone else in the family demanded a lot of attention and care when they were sick, but when I get sick, they all leave town, and leave me on my deathbed (I guess Justin did take the boys with him, it could have been worse).

That got me to thinking about my own mom. She was/and is, the best caretaker in the world. If you want royal treatment when you are sick, mom's the one to take care of you. I can't remember mom ever being sick, though. I remember her being in the hospital once with pneumonia, but we just went to visit a couple of times and she was up there alone the rest of the time. I guess mom's just don't have time to slow down and be sick, even when they feel bad. So, to my own mom, thank you! Thank you for always taking such good care of me when I was sick, and I'm sorry for never caring or trying to take care of you when you were sick. You're the best, Mom!
