We had a huge scare with Judah today and had to take him to the ER. His fever spiked really high, was shaking, and vomiting. I was a wreck! I felt like if someone even looked at me the wrong way I would lose it. The mama bear instinct was running through my veins. I held him, pacing the floors of the waiting room and watching my sweet baby boy suffer. I started to lose it. I'd never felt a child so scalding hot before. His eyes were rolling back in his head and I was SO freaked out! I barely felt composed enough to pray over his little body. Scary moments.
He's home now and a completely different child. He's back to his happy, playful, smiley self! I am just so overwhelmed by how quickly he went from horribly sick to perfectly fine. There is absolutely no explanation other than God's miracles at work in Judah. No parent wants to see their child sick. And it doesn't usually take something drastic like a sickness to make a parent thankful for their child, but the night-and-day difference I saw in Judah today has just blown my mind.
This was certainly not how we planned to spend his birthday weekend. We had to cancel his party last minute and miss our church fall festival. I'm officially clearing our family schedule for the week so that ALL of us can get some rest and relaxation. We're all sick or run-down or both.
Tomorrow is a great day for all of us to enjoy each other's company, resting, and celebrating the birth of our little man! Here are a few pictures from the summer and Judah's first trip to the beach!
I love this picture-he looks like he wants to throw sand!
Wiped out!
He enjoyed his first trip out on the boat in Charleston
A day at the beach takes it out of you!
