The last few weeks have been very difficult for the most part. Someone in our household has been sick every time I turn around, it seems! I already suffer from seasonal depression after the holidays, but with sickness and all the rain we've been getting over the last few weeks has made it very difficult! Don't get me wrong, I'm thankful for the rain because I know we need it, I just wish it didn't all come all at once and it would really be nice if some of it came at night! Today, it did not rain, but my 9 year old son got sick. My 7 year old daughter ran a fever last weekend. I'm hoping it was just that he are his pizza too quick, as little boys often do. He was really hungry and also just loves pizza! :0)
Anyway, this past week, the schools were out on Winter Break and while we do not take a Winter Break, I lightened the load for my kids. We had planned to go to our family's place in the mountains weekend before last and camping last weekend but it did not work out thanks to vehicles breaking down and mounting dental bills. Anyway, I was so excited that tomorrow was co op day and that I was getting out to enjoy some adult chat time and the kiddos were excited about their classes and seeing friends. Hopefully, it was the pizza and we can go to co op, but if not we will be stuck in for yet another day. I keep telling myself, "this too shall pass" and that "there is a light at the end of the tunnel", but it seems when I think I see a flicker, it suddenly disappears! :0( So, for now, I will just keep plugging along and reminding myself of the fact that God knows my needs, hears my pleas and has a plan. Even if I don't clearly see His plan, if I trust and obey, He will honor my efforts.
