sickness | Luv'N Lambert Life

It’s been a rough week so I’m a bit behind on my post for the week. Jackson has had two seizures. Laycie’s also had a mild cold so I ended up having to cancel the boy’s birthday bash for the weekend. I’m planning to make up for it soon.

I’m exhausted simply because of all that’s going on. It’s really taking it’s toll. I have so much to do but my family’s health has trumped anything that I need done.

Luckily, today Laycie’s feeling better but Jackson is still breaking through with his seizures. I did a little shopping today and found Laycie some new boots to keep her feet warm for the winter as she goes back and forth between our home and her Grandma’s next door.

I also found Jackson a new Taggie blanket and also a snuggly Puppy blankie. He loves them both.

I also found him a pair of flip-flops that are just a bit too big. Lately, he’s been wanting to wear everyone’s too big shoes. Great for his play-acting but not so great for a big boy who is just beginning to learn to walk. He loves his new shoes and the fact they are just a bit too big! He’s had so much fun walking in those this afternoon.

I’m short on time and energy so this post is going to be very short. Please say a prayer for our family’s health and for my sweet Jackson to feel better soon. Thanks y’all. Until next time…

Tonight I sit here with my beautiful 7 year old daughter. She is sick with a sore throat and fever. I gave her tylenol that has helped break the fever for now and honey which has soothed her little throat. I pray for her and give Praise to the Lord for blessing me with this strong, faith-filled little girl.

Times like this make me realize just how much I love this little girl. Sometimes in the midst of the busy-ness of life, I forget just how little she really is. In the pace of today’s world, children are grown before you blink your eyes. Seven year olds often act like pre-teens and in turn are treated as such. But nights like tonight remind me that she is indeed only seven, just a baby who needs her loving mother’s care. I thank God for her and praise him in her time of sickness.

Times like tonight remind me how easy it would be for the Lord to call her home. How quickly she can be taken from me. Times like tonight reminds me how much I should appreciate the Gift of her being, of her belonging to me, even for this short season of life. God has entrusted me to raise and love this child of His, to guide and take care of her. He’s entrusted ME, of all people, ME. He is wise, He knows best and for this I am thankful, for this I give Him praise and teach her to praise Him, even at her worse. He will not fail either of us. He is the Great I Am, Father of Heaven and Earth and all the Universe.

(Luke 8:48 NKJV) And He said to her, “Daughter, be of good cheer; your faith has made you well. Go in peace.”
