Deep breath

Can I just say I think I need a Spring Break for my Spring Break?

What started as plans to catch up on the house and relish in a celebration of life for my oldest (who turned 10 two weeks ago. Excuse while I wallow in that for a moment. How did that happen!?!? Ok... We can move on now... I think.) turned into a nothing got accomplished period and the birthday consisted of just sitting around. Yes, there were decorations and cake and the mounds of things we did throughout the last couple weeks to celebrate but still.

The following week when everyone else is on break we jump back into school. Or so I had hoped. A check up. An unexpected trip to a cardiologist... All is perfect no worries. God was totally in it. An unexpected beautiful answer to prayer for a second opinion for the situation going on with my littlest son's eye. A nip from a dog to a boy that loves him so and the teeter tater of do we keep him or let him go game.

Deep breath

We are keeping him due to the nature and events said nip took place but still a trying time. Days seem to have dissipated out of nowhere. What happened that week!? Best made plans right? The weekend was wonderfully busy with laughing girls celebrating the life of my oldest, and just breathing with friends as we made an impromptu trip to all see a movie. Which lead to a glorious time fellowshipping afterwards.

Deep breath

God refreshed and refueled at the end of the week for sure but here we are again at the the beginning of the week. While as far as I know Thursday night has plans and that's it stuffy noses that seemed to be breaking up over the last 2 weeks sound like they are trying for an encore. I don't remember the standing ovation at the end of their last performance but say la ve right?

So more deep breathing. "It's all part of the plan more or less" right? (Anyone with small kids yes, Agent Oso totally audibly said it in my head too. You aren't alone.) More remembering this too was written out long before my to do list even knew it existed... Time to stop wallowing in what I haven't accomplished cause I'm missing what God intended me to accomplish through this.

Wish I could have it back.
