I have to stop and thank you God for the blessings you have given my family. I often feel overwhelmed and under appreciated, over scheduled and under paid. Today I just feel blessed. At this moment all is good. I may get up three times tonight to attend to a coughing child, or a bad dream or a potty trip, but honestly, thank God that is all it is. My girls are here. They are healthy. We are happy.
Just another ordinary miracle... that is what every day is. I just need to slow down and realize that. I need to remind myself of that. I need to teach more and "tell" less. I need to stop more and go less. I need to appreciate the moment as it is happening more and worry about the next moment less. It is so easy to say that now as I sit here in a quiet house where everyone is sleeping (and Sean is at the Phillie's game!). It is a whole different story to actually do these things as the day is happening. I need to try. I will fail, but I need to try again. and again. and again.
