So Many Moments

I have so many moments of happiness from the past couple of days.  Where do I start?  Even though Middle has been in the hospital since Sunday morning, and just got released this afternoon, there have been some good moments.

-getting to spend one on one time with Middle

 -getting to spend two nights with Oldest and Youngest, they slept in room so we could be near each other

-Husband having a great job, where he can take two days off to take care of his family

-getting to take milk shakes yesterday & cinnamon rolls today to add some happiness to the little room in the hospital

-having wonderful nurses, that were so sweet to my daughter

-having awesome friends to help take care of all us & send prayers and well wishes our way

-hearing the other two girls pray for their sister and say how much they miss her

-seeing Middle's face when told she could go home (non stop smiling for at least an hour

-watching the sisters reunite with big hugs and even bigger smiles

-having slept great two nights in a row (nothing short of a miracle)

-having our whole family around the dinner table and saying family prayer together this evening

-being with Husband again, feeling his support and being supportive of him, working together

I am filled with such gratitude that she was able to come home and be healthy again.  We truly do need opposition in all thing.  I could not have had these moments of happiness if she had not been gone for three days.  It was such an example of in every bad thing there is an equal measure of goodness.  I have seen the goodness today and I'm thankful for it.

This list pretty much sums up my last few days of happiness too, except for the two nights of good sleep. - Gabe
