Truman was home sick again this last week (Darn Strep!) he was recuperating on the couch, I felt so bad for him, and wanted to take care of him… I asked, ‘Truman do you need anything? Are you feeling okay?’
He said ‘no mom, I’m doing just good.’
And the conversation continued: ‘Truman, does your throat still hurt?’
Tru: ‘yeah, a little bit’
Me: ‘how about your head, do you still have a headache?’
Tru: ‘yeah, I do.’
Me: ‘How are your ears?’
Tru ‘They hurt really bad mom’
Me: ‘Truman, you told me you were doing good, if you’re throat, head, and ears hurt, I don’t think you’re doing good?’
Tru: ‘Well mom, my body can hurt, and I can still be doing good on the inside!’
WHAT! Seriously, such a sweet, sweet boy…He has been sick a little this winter, but nothing like when he was little (sick for months on end). I am grateful to see that he just might be starting to out grow this auto-immune disorder! How grateful I am for that insight! And even more grateful for a boy with such a great disposition and attitude!

Thanks for that hubs- makes my heart want to give our Tru a great big hug, he’s a sweetie.
So sweet. I’m glad he’s outgrowing all those times of illness as a toddler.
What a sweet, sweet boy! I didn’t know he had an auto-immune disorder. 🙁 My little guy is sick all the time too!
How adorable is that?!?! What a sweet boy, he must take after his momma!
