Friday evening I sat just thoroughly exhausted from the week. Wanting to veg and everyone to leave me alone. I got the kids off to bed and was up late editing pictures. I saw this video in my feed posted by my sister Amber. It was just what I needed. I was feeling down about the kind of mom I had been that week. We stressed about making everything super for summer camp, but it really put a cramp in our routine. Stress usually makes me a grouchy momma. I was short with my kids, my house was a disaster, no kind of order, we didn't have much time to relax, our daily scripture reading slid off the schedule. So I sat with tears streaming. Realizing that the week had not been ideal family wise. Sometimes I have really rough times, or rough weeks. Thank goodness for new starts and a chance to begin new each day. It was a great reminder to focus on what really matters and to enjoy instead of dread the tasks of the everyday.
My family is the my most favorite of anything in the world :)
Oh my goodness, I saw this last night when I was planning my lesson for church and was going to do a blog post with it!! Love that!
