I got up 30 minutes ago at 5:30am to get things done and exercise. I never thought I would daily choose to get up that early. As it happens, my 2-year-old also got up, at the same time. So, no exercise for me, at least not right now. I am watching Nemo with her, doing a little catching up with the world, and letting my wife rest a little longer before she has to meet others' needs all day. Still...somehow...life is good.

We are what we see in our kids that drives us nuts sometimes...God puts up with so much more from us and is so patient and loving, still choosing to die for us! <br /><br />Praying for you, Amber. While it's always a challenge, it does seem to get easier. And this stage of life is for such a short time... then it will be something else :) <br /><br />P.S.... while trying to type this, Charlie came over and spilled a glass of water all over me and the couch...hahahaTarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04055897008356324485noreply@blogger.com
