Yes, the "not warm and fuzzy" is happening here too. Not good. AND YES! The kids get it, then everyone decides to put on the 'hey lets stir up some trouble" pants at the same time. I have 5. Not 10,or 12. But somehow they felt like more today. And I wished for a knight in shining armor. Or a magic wand. Or a fairy godmother. Non of which showed up. I will be praying for you and me both! meanwhile for the sweet sleep we probably both so badly need.Hezrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09345835447459948572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6045390691526021049.post-31144312307719222652010-05-13T13:59:00.637-07:002010-05-13T13:59:00.637-07:00Well, I think we all have these kinda days, or WEE...Well, I think we all have these kinda days, or WEEKS, sometimes!

I think I have gone to bed with a sore throat every night this week from yelling. Please know that you are not alone. We have not chosen an easy job to love the hurting.

Some days it seems like all I'm doing is refereeing, separating and/or punishing them, not in that order, and I just cannot wait until the day will end...and it does eventually...only to start anew the next morning with what I thought I put to bed the night before. It's mind numbingly exhausting at times.<br /><br />And then it was spring and the doors came open and they went outside, lol, and I was granted a reprieve for a time. <br /><br />Then it got cold and rainy again and more of the same...ugh, but we persevere and before we know it they're all grown up and we're wondering how that happened and we just want them little again.<br /><br />Hang in there, Shonni! We serve an Awesome God who is working this out for their benefit and ours, too!Jackiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11078983765054959562noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6045390691526021049.post-89031988225422507812010-05-12T20:47:04.698-07:002010-05-12T20:47:04.698-07:00((((((((BIG HUG))))))))))) I will be praying for y...((((((((BIG HUG))))))))))) I will be praying for you and your family!<br />I am so sorry you are going through the fire....<br />but having said that, thank you so much for sharing.... because honestly I see this beautiful woman of God who is an amazing wife, mother and daughter of God and glorifies Him.... <br />as much as I don't want you to be going through all this it actually ministers to me knowing I am not the only one who feels like I am "loosing it" from time to time.... sometimes I am so "fleshly" I feel like Jabba the Hut as I throw a pity party.<br />Stay the coarse my friend..... Jesus has you.... He has all of you and He will get you through.... <br /><br />And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not. <br />Galatians 6:9<br />He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.

I guess it's their turn now.<br /><br />You are a hard working Mom. You need a little pampering time - maybe some chocolate, candles and a bubble bath? Then a good book and a comfy chair with a blanket. Oh course all this happens after they are all in bed at which time you are totally exhausted and just want to fall in bed yourself.<br /><br />Hmmm, I'm not much help...Jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00219821176198096628noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6045390691526021049.post-2234125266842170882010-05-12T20:26:28.643-07:002010-05-12T20:26:28.643-07:00Hugs precious friend!
