Comfort and Joy

I will turn their mourning into gladness; I will
give them comfort and joy instead of sorrow.
Jeremiah 31:13

Five for Friday

Five for Friday - quotes that have spoken to me lately

1.  As yesterdays blogpost showed...I am exhausted with my 2 children. I love them and wouldn't change anything about them but man they are wearing me out. These 2 quotes reminded me that raising children is hard and there isn't a perfect way to be a mother...we are all just doing the best we can.

2.  I am so thankful for my precious husband.  I truly don't know what I would do without him.  He truly makes my heart smile.



3.  I think about my little guy all the time.  He is truly always on my mind and I miss him so much.

4.  I think people can easily become bitter and angry after something hard or difficult happens and I think each of us has a choice to decide how we are going to react to that situation.  It can change our lives for the better or for the worse.  It can leave us happy or leave us bitter.  For me its a decision I have to make often.

5. I want to print this and put it in our house. I love these rules for our family.






Happy Friday friends!  Hope you have a great weekend!

Good stuff. I have a hard time remembering that my mothering journey is not imperfect just because it doesn't look like another mother's journey. (Insecure much?) Thanks for that reminder. I'm proud of you for choosing "better". I imagine that's not easy. Hope you get a little break this weekend from all the craziness! XO
