Good Day

My caretaker journey began close to a decade ago - almost 9 years. In that time, I’ve often been afraid and overwhelmed, and I’ve felt ill-equipped to handle the sacrifices and responsibilities placed at my feet. My husband knows this more than anyone, as he’s the one who lives with me, goes through it alongside me, and has to make the same sacrifices by virtue of being my husband. He’s the one who endures my crying fits and tantrums and stands with me right through it all.

But there are days like today, when I have an extra good visit with Daddy, and I am able to step back and take a deep breath and just rest in the knowledge that God’s taken care of us all this time, and He’s not going to leave us now. So many people wish they still had their father around, and while I do, I want to cherish the moments we have together. Like with parenting, every day isn’t rosy, but the good ones always make up for the bad ones.
