Club Sandwich

I am in hopes that this will explain the "Club Sandwich" in which I live.  I definitely in the sandwich generation.  I have kids at home and aging parents and MIL who need my help.  I will list each person in no particular order.

Bread- My parents, they have health issues, my mom started dialysis last week for kidney failure, my dad is a diabetic.  They live a few miles from me and need a bit of moral support and help at this time.

Bread- My MIL (mother in law) it has been 3 months since she moved into our home.  She needs full time care for dementia. We go to the Dr this morning to get a definite diagnosis.

Ham-   My oldest son (Thomas, 21) he is a ham and a joy.  He and the love of his life Drea got married this summer.  They bought a home and are such a joy to see them starting their life together.

Cheese- My daughter (Elizabeth "Liz" 18) she is sweet and multi-faceted  and aging into a wonderful young woman.  Liz will graduate in May and is trying to find her path.

Turkey- My youngest son (Sam, 5) he is every bit a turkey.  He is in kindergarten and so ready to graduate from high school.

Tomato- My Loving Hubby (Kevin)  he is that silent dependable part.  We have been married almost 25 years!

Mayo-  Me (Tonya)  I am sticky and sometimes spread a bit thin.

The tooth pick-  GOD , He holds us all together!  With out GOD we would be lost.
