Oh Goodness, My Dear #hsmomssecretpals,
You don’t know this, but I’ve had such a tough day. I’ve broke down in tears multiple times, felt so ill-equipped and positively overwhelmed. I’ve mapped out my weekly schedule 3 times today, and can’t even fit one more thing in, no matter how hard I try. I’ve felt like a crappy friend, a distant momma, and a nagging wife.
Then something happened.. My son brought in the mail and I saw this card and charm from you…
The tears flowed again, but this time tears of joy, and relief.
The charm says “A friend loves at all times. Proverbs 17:17”
Yes!
Dear Husband and Friends,
Even on the days when I can’t do life well, and be there for you how you need me to- I still love you.
Tomorrow is a new day. I love fresh new days the way a little boy loves a new set of legos, or how a teenage girl loves her first cell phone.
There’s nothing quite as sweet as a another day to practice being Christ-like and giving Grace to others, AND YOURSELF.
Practical advice for when you’re having a tough day:
Pray, breathe deep, & delegate.
After that:
Eat chocolate, drink cheap wine {or expensive beer} & curl up on the couch for some meaningless TV.
