Such a sweet boy

Last week Nathan spent a couple days in the hospital. He had been struggling for nearly a week and rather than getting better, he was getting worse. Through it all, he was such a sweet boy. We have a wonderful pediatrician, who we are very thankful for, that was on top of his care. It was a very long couple days and we were so thankful to come home. But he is doing very well now....back to himself. There was a time while Nathan was sleeping (the first two pics), where tears were just streaming down my face as I sat there and watched him. I am so unworthy to be the momma to the 5 precious children that the Lord has given us. It is my desire that our boys know how much they are loved. There are so many children that die lying in a hospital bed...never knowing what it was like to be loved and cared for...and never having anyone by their side. I could not help at that moment of thought to be in tears. Never once did I leave Nathans side as he was in that bed, and as scared as he was, he knew that mommy was there. To God be the glory!!! I am so blessed!!
Here are a few pics from his stay......
