This morning didnāt start slow or peaceful.
I woke up to the sound of my husband throwing up.
You know that moment⦠when your brain is still foggy but your body is already on high alert? I immediately thoughtādid he catch what the kids have been passing around?
I grabbed the baby, walked into the other room, and there he wasāsitting at his computer, sunglasses on, trash can next to him. Dizzy. Nauseous. Just trying to push through and get to work.
He said his stomach felt tight and the dizziness was making him sick.
And in that moment⦠I knew exactly what to do.
We loaded up the kids and drove straight to the office.
I did what Iāve been trained to do. What I trust. What I see work every single day.
After his adjustment, he sat up⦠and threw up one more time.
Then everything changed.
That wave of relief hit himāthe kind you can see. His posture shifted. His voice softened. His body settled.
āI feel a lot better,ā he said.
No sunglasses. No tension. Just⦠relief.
On the drive home, he told his coworker what happenedāhow I adjusted him and how much better he felt.
And I just sat there thinkingā¦
How different would this moment have been if I didnāt have these tools?
I love serving my community. I really do.
But getting to show up for my own family like this?
Thatās the part that hits the deepest.
So grateful for what I get to do. š¤
