I will keep in mind to be thankful for a healthy kid than focus on how difficult he can be.<br />Hang in there on the allergies! I'll start with being thankful by thanking God that I don't have allergies!Beckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14133029016351210704noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24266137.post-67213010497683564342009-06-02T16:12:32.204-07:002009-06-02T16:12:32.204-07:00I could remind you of all the wonderful things you...I could remind you of all the wonderful things you are and that you do and all the amazing things your children will do and be because of the intentional parenting that you're doing (despite the frustration), but that's so not my style: good thing you have other positive voices in your life to do that. :) <br /><br />Instead, I'm going to say, "So.There.With.You.Friend." and point out that you now have excellent blog fodder along with quality "Can you believe?" stories to hold over their heads (in a loving manner, of course) and that the Kraft website has a lovely looking recipe for a raspberry vodka cooler. Not that I notice things like that ... :)Aj Schwanzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09038745884456450797noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24266137.post-67163504049450982672009-06-02T15:10:09.737-07:002009-06-02T15:10:09.737-07:00I'm sorry, and I TOTALLY understand!

Another verse is...<br />"So, amid the conflict whether great or small, Do not be disheartened, God is over all; Count your many blessings, angels will attend,<br />Help and comfort give you to your journey’s end."Beckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02810332177393636400noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24266137.post-66180246457971215402009-06-01T22:42:46.375-07:002009-06-01T22:42:46.375-07:00"L, is for the way you look at me.

V is very, very extraordinary, now E is even more than any any anyone that you adore and Love is all that I can give to you, Love is more than just a game for two...two in love can make it. Take my heart but please don't break it...Love was made for me and youuuuuu!" Okay, no I'm not a weirdo. I hope you remember this song we sang together (as we drove by the cow pasture at Faith Bible...need I say more?!) Hope it puts a smile on your face and reminds you of simpler times. You are amazing. Phenomenal. A one of a kind HILARIOUS mama with extraordinary amounts of patience. June 9th? You're on. Let's talk turkey. Oh, and you know what? I've found in those moments you mentioned above that singing over my children (when I'm holding them and we're both falling apart:)) brings sanity, peace, and God's presence right into the midst of the meltdown. And with a voice like yours and a heart of a worshipper like you have, I can only imagine the atmosphere would lift. Thanks for all your posts. Where would I be without them?!Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15115669165556435265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24266137.post-89318837673072318532009-06-01T22:01:45.952-07:002009-06-01T22:01:45.952-07:00Good post Jen and good perspective, I think we all...Good post Jen and good perspective, I think we all need that reality check now and then. However, it does sound like you had a heck of a day!<br /><br />Let me remind you, as you did for me (just yesterday)... you are an amazing mom, you are a faithful and loving wife, daughter and friend. I am blessed to know you and I learn from you as we both grow in this journey of motherhood together. I pray you do sleep long and hard tonight and that tommrrow brings a fresh perspective, endurance and grace for whatever befalls. You're doing a great job.<br /><br />Love ya,<br />Jennabuttershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17378919979867501424noreply@blogger.com
