Not my life
Lately I feel like my life is not my own. My life belongs to my kids, my husband, my house, my bills, my job, my yard, my laundry, my church, my family...all of "my" time is put towards everything but "my"self. AHHH...just one day I'd like to stay in my pajamas from morning until night in a house all alone. I feel like I don't even have time to connect to my God. My kids are up early and when they go to bed I am exhausted and usually still doing leftover work around the house or ministry stuff. The "pending" compartment on the file bin is overflowing, and the laundry will NEVER be done. I know this is just a stage in life, but just once I'd like to have say in what I do in my day instead of having it laid out for me. It makes me want these days when the kids are little to hurry up and be over with. But then I know when the boys are grown I'd give anything to have this time back. At least that's what they tell me.

This is what I pray for you and Erik almost every day. That you would guard your time with God and even in the midst of chaos and busyness of life your first priority would be to spend time with Jesus. That said anytime you want a day off let me know and I will come take the boys for you.
Happy to be Grandma anytime
Joan
