Ordinary Days...

Today.....I find myself anxious to meet our new little one.....still in the womb.

Today....I get frustrated when the monkies don't listen and obey....for the 100th time...and naptime hadn't even arrived yet.

Today...I find myself looking across the table at my husband at lunchtime....dreaming of
the day when we can enjoy a whole day of peace,quietness, no disciplining, lengthy conversations, snuggling, eating a meal....with no interruptions from little people.

Today...I get weary of the laundry that never seems to end.

Today....I get grouchy when the cereal bowls get dumped on the floor and stepped on.

Today...I get upset when one monkey shoves another in a closet and pinches their finger.

Today.....when quiet time arrives and I finally sit down with tea to a peaceful house.....I go to read a blog and God gives me this gentle reminder:

So today....I'm all of sudden so thankful for an ordinary day.
Today....seems to be precious in the blink of a tearful eye....and I'm so thankful to be living the life I am today.....with the gifts that God has given me.
