Some Days are Just Tough

I was having a hard day today and my two girls who are constantly interrupting me whether I am working on the computer, cleaning the kitchen, doing laundry, going to the bathroom or taking showers....today they caught me in tears and interrupted my sadness with their sweet sweet concerns over their mommy being sad. A moment they don't see often and it took them by surprise. They made me cards and lavished me with lots of hugs, snuggles, kisses and smiles. God you are so good. Thank you for providing these precious little starlings to me.

Faith Like A Child

There are moments where being a mom, I honestly don't like. It is anytime when one of my children are sick and I don't know exactly what is wrong with them. Today, Isabella woke up with a fever and she didn't look like she felt very well at all. She was trying so hard to feel good because she wanted to go to her cousin's birthday party. Even after a dose of ibuprofin she struggled to put on a smile. So despite several pleas from my other kids to go to the party, we opted to stay home today. I went to lay her down for a nap and as we were rocking in the chair, she asked for me to pray for her and sing one of her favorite hymns. Now this is faith like a child. She gets it and she is only two years old. Precious moments even when I cannot stand that she is sick.
