So last night I had a girls night out. I went to get my hair cut then met my sweet friends, Laura and Jayne, for dinner.
The last couple weeks my patience has been tested and I've just felt a little overwhelmed in the parenting department. Ryan is in a "I want to do it" stage which drives me bonkers but I know he will get over it soon and be agreeable again. And Colton has started some of these same strong willed traits. Fun times!
When I'm in those frustrating moments I just try to take a minute, pause and pray God would give me the patience I need. When I stop, I remember how patient God is with me. Lately I've been hitting the snooze button when my alarm goes off early in the morning and bypassing my quiet time. I have felt the lack of a quiet time over the last few days. I'm snappier and not very much fun to be around.
Today during nap time I spent time in The Word and it was so good for my soul. Last night spending time with dear friends and just getting out of the house and getting a break from cooking dinner, cleaning up and putting the boys to bed was so nice a very needed.
I'm hoping to get my focus back and doing my quiet time in the morning. It makes such a huge difference in my life. Thank you Lord that tomorrow is a new day!
