In Sickness & in Health

I've been sick this whole weekend, and still am. Just reflecting on the the traditional marriage vows, particularly in sickness and in health. Ben is always willing to take care of me. No make-up on, mismatched clothing, and messy hair--not to mention a terrible red complexion with a fever. Totally attractive, I know. I really, really hate times like these where I have to freeze my busy schedule. It probably doesn't help that I work at a school district. I might have to take the day off tomorrow. I need rest anyway. Yet, I am so thankful I am so blessed with someone who takes care of me when I am at my absolute worst. I cannot count how man times Ben has been there at my side--athsma, kidney stone, pinched nerve in my back (could not move on my own!), and of course the flu that goes around, etc. I love my future husband.

P.S. I am also thankful for my family members and friends who have comforted me and restored me back to health!
