Unexpected Blessings

Well yesterday Riley texted me from school (yes, I know he's not supposed to) and asked me to pick him up.  He's been dealing with a pesky headache for two days and rarely asks to go home.  I picked him up and chilled with him for a little bit before working from home on stuff that just had to be done.  Then, because Riley wasn't feeling good and Chad hasn't been feeling good, they stayed home from football and we had dinner together and chilled on the couch.  Riley was still running fever last night which meant no school today.  Now friday is my day off and I usually have it scheduled early in the week.  A little bummed, i cancelled my plans knowing full well that HOME is where I needed to be.  After running a few errands and taking Ri to the doctor that's where I am today.  As I was on Facebook a friend of mine at  Throneside posted the question "Name something that most people might consider small or insignificant, but in your life it's a true blessing." My response....HOME, that place where we don't get to spend enough time, the place that should be our sanctuary, the place where I GET to be today with a sick kiddo.  So what is something that may be small or insignificant to someone else but to you is a blessing?  Off to chill with my boy!
