My Boys

There really is no reason I need to sugar coat it, but after 13 years of marriage to Sam there is something I have never gotten used to, and it's the way he talks to me sometimes. It is not always the kindest words or tone, and just this morning when  I pointed it out to him, he said, "this is just the way I talk."

This morning I have a headache ( is this the point in our family stories that I start talking about my ailments? 😳😂 I hope not) but I did I have a headache this morning. I have noticed that I get these every month and have for about 2 years. They are awful and sometimes completely debilitating. I told me boys this morning to get themselves breakfast, but I would get down to make their lunches. When I came down about 15 minutes later, Josh was in the middle of making the lunches anyway. 

When I dropped off the 3 boys off at school,. they waved sweetly, Jonah asked me to pick him up, and Josh blew me a kiss, and then I teared up.

 There are moments when I have wondered why I am not treated better. When I have told myself maybe I didn't deserve to be treated better, but today, I realized I have 4 boys who treat me amazingly. 

They are kind, they are considerate, they are thoughtful, they care and love me so much. 

So, it  turns out, Heavenly Father thought I deserved to be treated 4x better.
