If it weren't for my parents....

I would truly be lost. They have been a literal God-send during this time. They arrived the day before I went into the hospital, so they were able to care for our pets, get our mail and watch our home while we were away. Because we are still finishing up the move, they've been working their tails off bringing over loads of boxes that we never got around to transporting. Mom has been handling meals and shopping while Dad has done odd jobs at our house and our rental home. I must remember to keep this in mind: no matter how ridiculous I think my childhood was with regard to some issues, I will never be able to repay my parents for all they have done for us just in the past week.
