Jace just sat on the couch and went through the Valentines from his class. One by one he pulled them from the giant, decorated envelope and read every word. I had to take a picture, because his smile revealed how happy this made him. As he read the sweet messages from his friends I thought about that great concept, synergy. Each Valentine was important to him, and even the generic messages on them were written just for him. Jace has also been receiving sweet Secret Valentines from someone, and treats from the neighbors last night cemented the idea that we are really LOVED this Valentine’s Day.
After having a few meltdowns Wednesday about “hating being sick” and “wishing he was somebody else,” he awoke Thursday a different kid. He felt great. His fever was gone, and he was happy. Now it’s Friday, and although we’ve been cautioned to stay home (low numbers), he is much better than my last post. All I can say is Thank Goodness It’s Friday! Did you all say an extra prayer for us?
