Usually when moms get sick (or this mom, anyway) everything falls apart. The house is a mess, nothing gets done and no one gets fed.
But today, I’m thinking that maybe I should get sick more often. Derek’s out of town but cleaned the kitchen last night before he left. This morning Jacob helped with breakfast and even cleaned everything up. There was no fighting. And when we were dropping Jacob off for school he gave this little speech to his brother:
"Ok, Boo-Boo, you’re going to have to take care of mom while I’m gone, because I won’t be there to help her. You be good, ok, boo."
Aaahhhhhhhh…I love those boys.
