May 4

I truly love the look of Spring: the flower buds and the sunshine and the warmer temps are all reminders of new life and potential. But the pollen and the other little allergens that cheerfully, wantonly flutter through the air and up my nose... not so much.

And this evening's been an especially stuffy, sneezy, drippy, congested one. So today I'm grateful for these little pink doses of antihistamine that help to make life more livable during this time of year. And I'm grateful to God for giving us the inspiration and wisdom to create medications that can help us when we're feeling less than awesome.
