After the Storm

You know, I think it's true that the lows that we experience help us to truly enjoy the highs.

My family is coming off of a nasty stomach bug that took nearly all of us out over the last few days.

In the dark of night, when I was in the throws of it all, I tried to keep the perspective that it would not last forever. I kept hearing the lyric, "Though the sorrow may last for the night, the joy comes with the morning." Although it lasted past the morning, my son, my husband, my parents, and I all felt better and better throughout the day.

This morning, my sister is sick. She started in sometime yesterday afternoon. I offered her my perspective on the situation, and she's trying to stay positive as well.
