Thankful!

I see the posts on facebook, each day people post what they are thankful for.  I think that's a great idea.  It's fun to read.  I don't partake because, I'm not on facebook everyday and I know don't know where to start.  I have so much to be thankful for..............but today something/someone stood out.   My husband!  He won't like this post, but since I'm not sure he knows how to post, I can :) 
Last night we were talking about nearing the end of harvest.   Praise the Lord!  We miss him.  Our home is not the same without him.  He is finished with his crops and is onto helping others.  So this week, weather permitting, he'll be done.  We talked about the hours he works and how single parenting isn't all that much fun.  Each stage has it's own struggles and this age is definitely better than the infant ages, so I TRY not to complain.  
This morning we got up and it's back to the grindstone.  Steve is gone by 6am, and I start getting kids up and going.  1 child was laying on the couch already.  That's not a good sign.  Megs didn't feel well.  Hmmmmmm..........plan B (yet I did not know what that was.)  I called work and said I had a sick kid.  I told them I'd see the patients I had, but couldn't take any more.  I delivered children where they needed to go.  I came home.  I left early to get the twins from preschool to go see a patient.  My husband calls at 11am and says, "I'm rained out, what can I do to help you?"   FOR REAL!!!!  I thought, "how selfless."  He went to get the twins and head back home. (The twins were SOOOOO excited dad picked them up from school.  I heard about it all day!)  I texted Megs and told her dad was on his way home.  She said, "I know he stopped in to make sure I was ok."  What a great guy.  He had lots of work to do yet, in the office, fixing stuff and the list goes on, but he stopped, because he could :)  (please don't feel bad for me.  I didn't call anyone for help today.  I knew that we could get by without bugging anyone else.  I don't want to hurt my mom or mother in laws feelings.  They totally would've helped me, I have a problem with asking :)
It's nice to have him home.  1 more week and we should be golden.  We just run more smoothly as a team.  Meg's is feeling better and we hope the illness stops at her.  If Brooke gets sick her surgery will be postponed.  Even though it's 6 weeks away, once she gets an illness, she likes to keep it.  So, we pray, she escapes it.  
I'm not sure I updated on Brooke's last labs.  Her immune studies have stayed about the same.  Nothing to earth shattering there.  It appears what she has is working for her.  Her varivax (chicken pox) titer was negative again.  Which means once she gets the immunization her body is not remembering it and she's not immune.  Her MD wants to try again in January.  He really feels her body will catch onto this.  Steve and I agree, we'll try once more.  But not sure how many more vaccines we want to give if they aren't going to work.  We'll just wait and see :) 
Have a great Thanksgiving Season!  Love your loved ones and enjoy the time together.
