Perspective thanks to Zoey and Jude

I have been very tired dealing with a sick baby and frustrated over the surgery being postponed. I have been playing the what if game and kicking myself in the butt- what if I would have done to surgery sooner like the Dr originally suggested, then she would have been done with it (that sort of thing). But after getting on my blog and reading others updates- it has again put things into light for me. What am I complaining about ? There are others in worse situations that would love to be where I am. So I am now kicking myself in the butt for feeling sorry for myself. And my prayers go out to little Zoey who is again in the hospital fighting leukemia and baby Jude who is also fighting a hard fight in the hospital. Poor baby Jude doesnt have a promising diagnoses and may not get to live past childhood~ but we are keeping him (and Zoey) in our prayers and sending them positive thoughts. Jude has a sister (close to Caitlin’s age). I know how hard this has been on Caitlin, I can only imagine what Jude’s sister is dealing with. I will strongly deal with Kayden’s fever and fussiness and try not to complain. I think it has helped a lot having Daddy stay up with Kayden last night and me being allowed a whole nights worth of sleep. Thank you Daddy.

On a side note- the tool bar is missing to allow me to add pictures ! Not sure how to figure it out ! If I dont, I cant add any more pics ! Bummer !!!
