Thinking...
Today sucked major donkey balls. Paul snored so loud in my ear all night. I hardly slept, makes for an angry wife. I know it's not his fault, he doesn't know he's doing it but I spent all night shoving him. I figured if I wasn't getting any sleep neither was he. Then I was PO'd about a few other things.
Then tonight I came across this blog http://sadandchara.blogspot.com/ again. Chad lost his pregnant wife and unborn daughter in a bad car accident this last winter. They live in a city south of me. I guess they had tried for quite a few years to get pregnant. This was their first child, a girl and Sara was only a month from her due date. They were hit by a semi. I 'think' Chad was in the car too, if so he wasn't hurt very bad but Sarah was hurt BAD. They kept her alive long enough to do an emergency C-section in the ER to try and save baby Miranda. She didn't make it. So now Chad is left without his wife or child.
I read his blog again. I did right after the accident but lost the link to it. I came across it again. He writes letters to his wife sometimes daily. Reading them makes me realize again how much I love my husband and kids. How much I would be lost without them. Why I am still very irritated with the snoring and my children lack of ability to act decent in public, and the lack of the ability to listen it doesn't make it seem so bad.
I pray for him to find peace and the strength to move on.

Ohh Sarah!!! I know what you mean completely! My husband snores nightly. Sometimes so loud that it wakes me & then keeps me awake. I push him, make him roll back over (sometimes it helps - not always) & I have asked him before & he's offered sometimes too, to go to the couch & sleep so I can get my sleep.
And I know about the daily stuff that makes us PO'd. I've been there too.
I also remember the baby Miranda story, all to well. I often think of Chad & wonder how he's doing or even how he manages to survive a day without his wife & daughter. And when I get down about the daily stuff, if I think of him, like you said, suddenly, nothing seems as bad.
I too, am blessed, soo much to have a husband & 2 kids. I love you, so much, no matter what happens & no matter how far away I am I think of you guys often! Love you <3
Your friend always ~ Karen ~
