(I despise ants) and putting too much pepper in the meal I made.. Yes I know not a big deal..it was at the time...it's time for a vacation or maybe just sleep.
I'm also super thankful for Justin Heck. The Lord knew what He was doing when He put this patient man in my life. He for sure balances out my crazy non patient self, that begged him go get some ant killer because if I saw one more ant I may go nuts. He did go get it. He also took over the whiney non-napper Jude who I would probably have given to anyone who came to my house. Also, I'm glad he's better at grammar than me...I wasn't sure whether to use given or gave in the above sentence...not that I really care in this blog..as you've probably noticed. I'm thankful for friends who understands what it's like to wake up in the morning and already be ready for the kids nap and/or bedtime. I'm thankful that I have been able to live close to my family and I am able to get a break when I need one and they are always so gracious and willing to help me out.
I'm thankful for a gracious Lord, who Has blessed me with these children to love and take care of everyday...even on days like today, where I was wishing I could be anywhere else. I'm thankful I can even make it through tough days because of Him. The last verse to one of my favorite songs I Have Been Blessed is one of my favorites and I was reminded of it earlier today.
He's my shoulder to lean on when I'm down. The rock where He leads me when I'm overwhelmed. The place where He hides me is under His wings. He's not just a song. He's the reason I sing. I have been blessed.
I know bad days...weeks happen...they are normal. I'm just thankful for a God who helps me through them and the people He put in my life who are a blessing to me.
Luke set up a picnic. This is right before things started getting crazy. |
