Ever get the feeling that life is going too good? I had a good job, a healthy daughter, a sweet and loving husband. It was easy to see that we were enjoying life, but also taking it for granted.
During the weekend while we waited for the results of the biopsy...I realized just how quickly life can change. We didn't know what the mass was, and while we were hopeful, I suddenly wondered how many days I would have left with my husband.
Every night when we tuck our daughter into bed we say night-night to all the pictures on the way by. We say nigh-night to her cousins Ava and Ella, Savannah and then as we walk down the hall say nigh-night to the picture of her with daddy. As we said nigh-night to daddy's picture tears swelled in my eyes. What if someday this was all she had was a picture to say nigh-night too. I tucked her into bed and tried to wipe the tears from my eyes.
I also started to feel guilty. Was I giving 100% to my marriage, or just giving the 50% by doing only my share. From that day, I knew to never take my life or my marriage for granted.
