ugh.
i have failed so many times the last 2 days....so much going on...
rebekah's birthday
bailey's birthday
a 1 month old that eats and poops and cries constantly
rebekah's first week of school
pat's long work hours
and getting ready for a week away
any ONE of those things - fine.
but all of it together, in the same week, has made me a bit crazy
i've failed to keep things in perspective
i've put the "unimportant" things in front of the "important" things way too many times
and i hate it. i hate it. i hate it.
i lay in bed and remember the many times i said, "in just a minute" and sometimes even forgot and never did what i said i'd do "in just a minute". i replay all the impatient words i spoke. and i pray that they forget. that they forgive me. and that that's not what they remember their mom for.
so i press on.
and i pray i learn from this week.
so that maybe next time (there WILL be a next time) i can handle it better.

The GREAT thing is that you have a week coming now that you'll just get to be doing the important things - no laundry, or homework, or birthdays or errands or distractions - just your precious family and friends to enjoy. So enjoy it!!!
(and to add to Katy's comment)...AND YOUR TOES IN THE SAND!!!! :)
I am praying you have a great trip! I pray that the kids have fun and let you relax. Hang in there friend and enjoy the week and I will pray you enjoy the week back too when everything gets into the swing of things...
Did Tim and Chari go too?
