This morning I was a little late waking up again but again I got through my prayers.  Today however, I did get the kids started before my wife was out of the shower.  I bickered with her about her griping at the kids and having too short a fuse too early in the morning.  We had a problem with my #2 son who was groggy and refused to eat and wanted to stay home.  I got him there finally and on time.  The kids had a big event today, a field trip to the water park.  I regretted sending #2 as he ended up throwing up.  He did have a good time after that and spoke proudly of getting on the biggest ride.  Just as I sat down to do this journal I heard him whimpering in his bed.  He was contorted in a pool of vomit.  I felt terrible for the kid.

Today I got to talk to a friend in recovery.
Today I got to be lifted up by an inspirational speaker.
Today I got to make an impulse buy.
Today I got to fix a car problem.
Today I got to pass a test.
Today I got to hug my kids.

Thanks be to God for this day.
