You Never Know...

...who you married until you have kids. And sick kids at that. Hallie is such a great mom and has more patience than Mother Teresa, well, close. As of late, and by "as of late," I mean the last couple months, we have been dealing with on again/off again sickness. Though we've had breaks in between, it feels almost constant. We don't sleep much during these times and Hallie barely even gets to leave the house or see other humans. Does she complain? Nope. Is she pleasant? Almost always. Am I lucky? Most definitely. We have beautiful girls, but sometimes it's hard to see beauty through the eyes of a sick, irritable two-year-old and a sad little five-month-old. Yet, Hallie works wonders with them and still manages to make meals, clean and be amazing.

Thanks Hallie. The girls and I are lucky and blessed to have you.
