Strokes 'R Us

The stroke that I had in December had an effect on all of us.
The recovery and the new norm has an effect on all of us.
After Jackson, Braxton and I had our flu shots yesterday, we had some lunch.
They took me back to work.
Within 45 minutes, I had a headache that caused me to not be able to hold my head up.
My  left eye has tapped out.
I was not in a good place.
Braxton came back and got me, gave me medicine and put me to bed.
The boys alternated checking on me every 20 minutes.
Their lives have been changed drastically.
Later in the afternoon, once I was up and downstairs, Braxton took Colton to the store and got him two pumpkins.
One for him and one for Je'Mari.
They carved away and had a great time.
That was a job for a mama to do. 
But there are many things that Mama doesn't do anymore.
My boys, without being asked, always step right in. 
They know what needs to be done and they do it.
I am so, so thankful.
