One of those days…

I cried buckets tonight.  Nothing out of the ordinary happened.  It was one of those not so good days for me.  I was reminded of my son’s sickness and his limitations to enjoy certain aspects of life.  And I was so emotional and I just grieved once again.  I know a lot of people go through tougher things in life and what I am going through is not the worst, but sometimes it seems unbearable for me.  I can put up a pretty strong front to most people most of the time.  But my husband knows… all my weaknesses and frailty.  And it’s not very pretty.  Don’t let the tough exterior fool you.  I know I will be okay.  I am sure tomorrow will be a better day.  I am humbled and grateful for my “imperfect”, yet so perfect Timothy.  Here’s my beautiful son…

  1. Alice, Timothy truly is beautiful. And he always puts a smile on my face whenever I see him. =) There's nothing wrong with you crying buckets! But next time you do, call me and I'll be right over with jap ramen, mandugook, and gookbap!

  2. Thanks for sharing your valley with us. Our prayers continue to be with your family. Our children pray for T every night. Thanks for reminding us that mom n dad n C need prayer as well. Psalms 121 is a good read.

  3. Makes us long for that day when our Lord will take us home, to spend eternity with him. No more crying, not more tears, no more loved ones in pain...
