It is EXHAUSTING.
Yesterday was absurdly difficult.
I think I was just really tired.
Little people ask so many questions.
I am trying REALLLLLLY hard to be encouraging to my little ones, but yesterday I just failed .
I ended up hurting my eldest daughter's feelings and basically running over my best friend and blubbering all over the phone how crummy my day was.
So I messed up.
I needed a "do-over".
So today I had one.
Sean went in late to work and we went to the Brookshire's Museum.
I got some serious perspective.
God is bigger than homeschooling.
God can minister to you in a prison surrounded by enemies who want to hurt you.
So why can't He minister to you at home surrounded by little ones who want to know you and learn from you?
The point is....
He can.
I don't need any special devotional books or special worship music or anything.
All I need I already have---
Jesus.
This is just a season and someday I am going to miss it.

I"m glad you got to get out of the house today. I think that's what I need to do, cuz I'm feeling overwhelmed and having a hard time and I'm not even homeschooling.
Glad you all had a good day. I really enjoyed your perspective shift (or at least your description of it). :) Have a wonderful next week my friend and I'll see you when I return.
Yeah I agree sometimes we just need to get out of the house to get refreshed. I am glad you had a good day today. As far as the other day we all have our mess ups and that is why grace is so awesome. I still am learning about this when i mess up too. Hugs to you. And i love you!! You are an awesome Mom by the way!!!
