Thankful Thursday, Take 112

Thanking God this week for...
  • last weekend's visit home
  • lunch and shopping with my mom
  • Elijah's soft, smooth skin
  • the therapeutic effects of sunshine and exercise
  • thin & chewy peanut butter cookies
  • the huge bag of summer clothes for Elijah that a friend gave me
  • an endlessly patient husband
  • my dad's homemade ice cream
  • the simple joy of blowing soap bubbles
  • reminders that I'm not perfect and it's foolish to try to be
  • the cross and the empty tomb
  • the promise of resurrection

I read a couple of the posts below this one and the first thing that entered my mind was..."give yourself a break". I bet you are doing a great job at mothering and it is truly the hardest thing in the world, especilly being a stay at home mom. I worked when my first one came which was a lot easier then when I stayed home when the second one came. I have my "good" days and "bad" days. I think the fact that you question yourself actually means you are doing a fabulous job!
