breakfast in bed

the kids brought pat and i breakfast in bed this morning!
{after 30 minutes of unsuccessfully trying to get us out of bed}
complete with an almost full gallon of milk (!)

they brought us what we each eat for breakfast...a bowl of cereal for pat and a yogurt for me.

adorable.
and thoughtful.
and then they were SO excited to realize that pat was staying home.

i'm going to do my best to ENJOY my family today...even though i have SO much to do.
i basically ruined the day yesterday {once again} with my high-strung need to get things done.
did it get more done? NO.

when will i ever learn??
so thankful for a Father i can turn to with His arms open wide.
{and for a husband that so clearly demonstrates that love in a tangible way to me. ready to forgive and move on as soon as i "come to my senses".}

if i would just stop turning away.

I have that same high-strung need and I feel like I let so many opportunities pass me by because of it. Good for you for making an intentional effort today to enjoy in spite of the long to do list. I hope you have a really wonderful day Courtney.
