When the going gets tough.....

the tough get going! Hope that's true. Jerm is not feeling like himself the last couple of days. Last night (Wed.) was not good for him and I think tonight is a little worse. The GOOD news is he just has tomorrow and then he is done with what we "affectionately" call Hell week. We had a quiet day today, when Jess left for work it was just him & I and then his dad came up on his lunch hour. I think he likes an occasional day like that...and who wouldn't enjoy being forced to spend time with their parents at the age of 27????????

Mother's Day is Sunday and more than ever I am grateful for the gift of our son. There is no love as strong, as neverending, as unconditional as a parent's love. And I am reminded that, thru all of this, no matter how much me & his daddy love him, Jeremy is loved so much more by our heavenly Father. It is what gives us hope, gives us strength. AND more importantly, gives us peace...when things get a little rocky.

One more day, Jeremy! You can do it. Just think, you're 2/3 of the way thru the "long" weeks after today! Loved the picture of you and your Mom. What a great one for Mother's Day!

Take care,
