Son 1, Concert Zero

Sometimes life throws some tough decisions at you. This really wasn’t one of those times. Yesterday, my youngest son got sick and my wife and I had to rush him to the hospital. The good news is that he is okay now (praise God!). The bad news is that I had to miss the Nobuo Uematsu concert of Final Fantasy music that took place last night. I’d been looking forward to the concert for months, having bought tickets within an hour of the initial announcement! I even had contingency plans in case we couldn’t find a sitter! But I hadn’t factored a trip to the emergency room into that picture…

Well, I’m overjoyed that my son is better now! My friends all prayed for him and supported me! One even got me a refund on my tickets. But after it was all over, I was really depressed over missing the concert. This morning though, I stayed home with my son and it really struck me hard that he is more than worth a missed concert! I was sooo scared I was going to lose him, yet here he is as if nothing had happened at all. Now that is a freakin miracle!
