Last week I got a big fat "F" in my parenting.
I was impatient and easily overwhelmed.
I am thankful that his mercies are new every morning and that I have a fresh week.
Each and every day is such a gift.
Time is such a gift.
I'm praying that I will soak in all God's goodness in my days rather than wishing the days would go by quickly.
So far so good.
I'm sitting here tickling little baby feet and watching him eat his snack.
Taking time to reflect rather than frantically cleaning while he is occupied.
Despite me and my poor attitude last week, there were laughs, good moments and sweet smiles...
A very exiting time in our house.
Ava has picked up interest in her bike again.
FUN!
Couldn't resist this little onesie at Target.
Ava helping lead worship at school.
Someone likes the swing!
And someone loves her boy!
My pretty, sweet girl being adorable in this new dress that her Aunt Bea got her for her b-day.
My heart and soul.
I like hubby's new glasses.
And I like him...A LOT.
"When Satan tempts me to despair,
And tells me of the guilt within,
Upward I look, and see him there
Who made an end of all my sin."
And tells me of the guilt within,
Upward I look, and see him there
Who made an end of all my sin."
I am actually embracing this Monday morning.
Ready to do this week right.
Thankful for God's grace.
How encouraging! I have trouble being patient as well, and I know I will need the Lord's mercy even more when I've got two little ones to take care of (and one big one, the hubby). Love you, Kari, and love all the gorgeous pics! Also, I love the quote at the bottom - sometimes I sing that song to myself for encouragement :)
ReplyDeleteSister you will never get an "F" in parenting. You show unconditional love to your kids every day...who can demand more?
