My Season

Today I had one of those days. One of those days that feels like it's never going to end. One of those days that feels like I am drowning in laundry and dishes and toys, and one of those days that I wish my children could just be older and more independent. But at the end of the day, when they are both sleeping peacefully (and I can breathe) I am reminded of my season. My 2nd mom, Ruth, always taught me that we go throughout life in different seasons. Right now I am in a messy and wild season. A season that consists of diapers, tantrums, tears, peanut butter that gets everywhere, negotiating endlessly with a toddler, and so many other little frustrating things. I am also in a season that is full of love, laughter, smiles, endless fun, toys, and happy memories. Yes, some days are SO hard and SO long, But I wouldn't trade it for anything! I just want to hold onto my little ones as long as I can while they are young. Because too soon they won't be little anymore. So while I am in this season, I am going to try my best to appreciate everything; the hard things as well.

They love each other!

I am in the best season right now. Blessed with two beautiful and healthy girls and a wonderful and supportive husband. I don't know how these two little girls can be so frustrating when they are so beautiful! :) They sure do have a tight hold on my heart.
