Sick Sick Sick

Things have been pretty miserable over at our house for the past week.  Nathan has had a cold, cough, and is getting a molar which has not been going well for him.  I have been deathly ill with a sinus infection since last Friday and have been barely able to function.  And Matt has been miserable because he has had to take care of me and Nathan.

On Sunday I was so sick I couldn't even get out of bed and was too sick to care.  As I layed there hour after hour I could hear my fussy baby crying and whining and my sweet husband soothing and caring for Nathan.  Matt fed him, changed every diaper, rocked him, wiped his snotty nose and comforted him.  He did everything I would have done and didn't even skip a beat.

It really made me think about how amazing marriage is.  Don't get me wrong our marriage is far from perfect but in a way it is perfect.  I have someone that is always on my team.  That is working towards the same goals that I am and that loves the same things.  Someone that can step in and take over for you when you can't.  Someone who will step in without ever being asked.  Someone who gets up five nights in a row with your crying baby and lets you stay in bed and rest.

Matt you did an amazing job taking care of us this past week.  We love you tons and promise to not get sick ever again! (Or at least until you get caught up on sleep.)
