It's the end of the day. All my little butterflies are tucked in, all is still in our home. I love these quiet times, when all is well. The day wasn't well though, so much going on. The girls not feeling well, and needing different things at all times of the day, and a very sick cat that we had to take to the vet. That created for a bit of an emotional day as well. As I flew around taking care of the needs of my family I felt at peace. I've noticed that getting so overwhelmed and frazzled over situations just causes stress and I'm missing so many teachable moments. When I gave birth to my first daughter I told my husband all I want is to be a good mommy. At the end of my life here I want to know and feel that I did my best at that. I've never wanted anything more than what I'm doing now. Tonight I read a book to my daughter that we haven't read since she was little. It made me feel so happy to read it to her and know that she will always be my little girl ! I'm loving how God uses different situations to show himself. At the beginning of the year my prayer was that God would strengthen our family in Him, as well as individually. Jan. 4th He started doing that. Amazing !!! Enjoying everyday, no matter what life gives me, and watching my butterflies open their wings a little more is a true blessing !!!!
