Blessings.
I have to remind myself of today's blessings. This winter has been a really tough one for me with I-man sick a lot, the boys "filling out" their personalities, and even some depression. I've needed some sun!
This morning I took my Dr's advice and got outside for the full recommended hour. It was bitter cold, especially in the wind, but worth it. My head isn't as foggy and I'm not about to scream because one of the boys disobeyed. again. I don't even feel the need for a nap yet! Most days I'm counting seconds until naptime.
And even better, I spent some time with the Lord today. I know we're just in a season and He provides me with everything I need to survive every.single.day. I need to remember all of God's promises, not just the select few.
Today I choose to be grateful for ALL of today's blessings.
My kids are all healthy. In fact, the boys are litterally jumping around the living room right now.
Isaac hasn't had a potty accident at all today.
We have all the warm clothes we need to enjoy time out in the sun.
My husband remembered his phone today and I can talk to him if I need to.
I have great friends. Really great friends.
I love my family. They love me.
My house has more than enough food, clothes, blankets, toys, and non-neccessities filling each room.
I get to take care of my kids for a living. The lack of income is worth every day of it.
I get cuddles any time I want; from both of them!
My husband is the hardest working man I know and I'm so proud of him!
Sydney is having a great school year and has handled problems better than she would have 3 years ago.
I decorated for Easter yesterday and like looking at the new colors around the room.
The boys are learning how to use scissors. "Own-ee paber mom?" "Yes, only paper!"
We're planning to bake brownies after naps today.
I have the freedom to read my Bible any time I want.
I'm trying a new recipe for supper tonight. :)
Some days I struggle with being done having kids at a young age, but today I feel my family is complete and I have no desire to ever carry a baby in my belly ever again. Or be sick like that. Or to be in that much pain. Or to be that sleep deprived. EVER. AGAIN.
Today is the first day of spring!
It's the little things that make life so great.
