I am having one of those moments - you know where you really want to stomp and scream and yell, "How come life doesn't revolve around me!!??"
I am listening to Camden cry from the other room because I have grounded both of my little angels from getting any of the leftover cupcakes today. They fought in the car.... I warned them. Then we come home and I begin my numerous trips from the van to the house carrying school work, trash, groceries, and library books when the fighting begins again. I walk in to the kitchen to hear Hope yell, "I will NEVER love you" to which Camden responds with a swift kick between Hope's legs. Hope screams in anger and I declare over the sound of her yells, "Grounded from Cupcakes!!" Camden goes into anguished, heaving crying. I have two loads of clothes that need folding, my bathrooms are dirty, we're behind in schoolwork for the day due to our errands, and in the back of my mind I am constantly aware that I will be spending my entire evening tonight at the church gym watching Blake and 60 other guys in a dodgeball tournament ...and then..... my husband texts me to say, "Hey, I'm going out to lunch with one of the pastors today, so I won't be home for lunch." Oh, really, OH REALLY, OH REALLLLLLYYYYY!!!!
ahhhhh....... blog therapy.....that feels better. A little blogging and some time with the Lord and I'll be back on track because the truth is:
I'm living my dream. I have a wonderful husband, two children that I really do enjoy being with when they are not fighting or whining, the privilege and freedom to educate them at home, fantastic friends, a home and 2 vehicles, a healthy body and a healthy family, a church family that I love, a city 30 miles from the beach, the opportunity to be involved in ministry, and the love of the Savior of my soul. I am BLESSED beyond measure.
