when i need a smile
Lately it seems I have been short a few smiles around the house. My oldest little sweetheart has been growing in lots of things, including testing my patience. Needless to say she has been seeing a few more reprimanding looks than is probably healthy for an almost three-year-old.I think I need to go through my pics more often, for as I sat here tonight looking, I realized how precious these two little human beings are to me, and I must reach deeper for grace and patience and joy to pour over them every day instead of running dry and letting furrowed brow be the most they see.
I often find Eiley's attitude mirrors my own.
I need more joy.
Jesus help me today to reflect your heart towards my girls, even in the 'teaching moments', fill me with more of you Lord.....Amen

Svea, I echo that prayer! Let there be more "fruits" in my life too!
oh Svea, "3" can be very, very challenging. I totally can relate, and know how much slowing down it takes to not punch holes into walls and doll houses.
