the past few weeks have been crazy, and next week is going to be even more ridiculous. {monday: school 9a-7p. tuesday: babysit 8a-9p. wednesday: school 9a-9p. thursday: school 9a-12p. meeting 4p-5p. mentoring 5p-6p. bible study 6:30p-9p. friday: go out of town to stay with kara and elizabeth at college for the weekend.} today i babysat from 10:30a-9p. long day. busy day. but through it all, i find the good things.
tonight at the dinner table i was able to just sit and laugh until i cried with my baby girls. we all giggled the whole time and acted like we were 5 years old. {oh wait...aud is 5 and laur is only 4. hah whoops.} i also sat on the driveway and blew bubbles with laur for who knows how long and watched her chase them. these are the beautiful moments in life.
all too often, i forget to take time to just breathe. my method of "breathing" is sitting on my floor crying. i need to learn to revel in the wonderful times. to laugh unabashedly when i'm enjoying myself. to actually sleep without worrying about what needs to be done or the things i've forgotten.
i have to learn to have a heart at peace when life is anything but peaceful. that's what i'm learning this week.
