It is SO great to have Cailyn home! We have already laughed so much. We enjoy our time together. We both admitted that we've laugh more and harder today than we have in the month we were apart.
We hugged a lot, too.
Since Cailyn will be starting high school here tomorrow, we had to go buy her school supplies and get things ready for her to register in the morning. I tried to print the forms... I don't have any black ink left. That means a 7am trip to Wal-Mart for ink, then back home to make sure the kids are ready for school, print and fill out the forms, and then we will be all out the door at 8am.
Should be an crazy morning!
That's what life is all about. We need to take the crazy mornings with the ones that go smoothly, the good days with the bad, and the sad times with the happy times.
The way I see it, it's okay and completely normal to have times that seem overwhelming. It's okay to be upset when things are just not working out. It's okay to be frustrated when situations pop up that you weren't expecting.
BUT
You also need to take pleasure and respite in those moments that are peaceful. Experience serenity when things are working out. Be excited when God blesses you with more than you could have imagined.
AND
In everything, be thankful.
God is with you.
Through every aspect of life. The ups, downs, smooth-sailing, rough waters, frustration, and peace.
He loves you.
He will never leave you stranded.
He's as close as the mention of His Name.
God walks through your life with you. All of it.
Today, tomorrow, and always.
