popsicles & prayer

Today is my day off! The weather is beautiful and I don't have a lot to due BUT I'm staying indoors with my daughter Emma. Why? She is sick! Yes, sick includes several trips to the white throne! Who knew a five year could have that much inside of her. (Sorry about that visual)

I feel helpless. She has a fever and just wants to lay on the couch, watch TV and rest and eat popsicles!

I wish I could do something or switch places with her. It's difficult as a dad to sit back and watch your child be sick.

So, I pray for her and hold her and pray some more. There's somethig about praying for your child and the incredible bond it develops. I'm sure the prayer works but I'll keep feeding her popsicles too!
