back at it

so i think i was in a bit of a funk.
spurred on by one very cute son...but the blame is not on him, i make my own choices, just like he does.

i chose hopelessness and anger for a week or so, but that is behind me (for today at least! i no longer look past "today". victory in this moment, i'll take it and be thankful.)

i'm used to waking up feeling joyful and hopeful. and "i" am back. praise God!!

during sawyer's soccer practice, i loaded up bikes and scooters and the stroller and we went for a beautiful walk...then watched the end of his practice. rebekah talked my ear off with all the stories of her day. lincoln and bailey raced and laughed and just did their thing. levi talked and talked...to the air?? that kid NEVER stops talking! {joshua was at tennis practice}. it was a nice evening.
i'm back at eating "clean." dinner the last 2 nights. chicken fajita's for everyone else. this for me. i am already feeling SO much better. i'm so thankful that i KNOW what i need to do to feel well. sometimes it's not easy to do, but at least i KNOW what i need to do!
these 2. they are so stinking cute, aren't they?? adoption rocks. it does. it also rocks you to your core. i don't think that was the intent of the phrase, but it's true. YET...it's something that is near to God's heart...He talks of it often in His letter to us. He knows best in ALL things. choosing to trust.
back at it this week. joyful, hopeful, feeling well and trusting.

how about you?

I could never stand the phrase "adoption rocks." Until now when you said it rocks you to the core. Because THAT makes sense to me! Now I will be able to agree when people say that if I look at it from that point of view. Yes, it does! :) Thanks!
