It is a little ironic that I committed to doing this photo project and today I had one of the most frazzling days I have had since school started this fall. Somewhere in my chaotic, run around to the next thing day, I made some salt dough ornaments after seeing how to make them in today’s paper. I am so looking forward to painting them in pretty colors with my daughter…even though it is not going to happen today.
Sometimes I feel like my life is a bunch of unfinished projects or things that get tabled to the next day’s list again and again and again. God has challenging me lately to look at the bright spots on my schedule. To look at the joys of bringing my kids to basketball practice and watching them learn a new sport. To feel blessed by the opportunity to go to meetings and be a part of a ministry. To take pride in soothing crying babies or wiping toddler’s runny noses because they are God’s special little blessings too…and it is a honor to help their moms so they can work in Christ’s kingdom. Once I focus on the right things the unfinished ones don’t seem so daunting anymore.
