Have you ever had one of those days? Maybe it's because I'm pregnant and don't want to deal with anything; I'm over-emotional; overwhelmed; frustrated; feeling under appreciated as a mom, etc., etc., etc. Yes, one of those days.
Owen and Caroline are sick, yet again, with another cold. I'm so done with having sick kids and hearing kids cough, wipe their noses on their arms, fussing over the dumbest things, whining over the even more ridiculous things. Yes, one of those days.
Yet as I sit here and write this post, and so many other moments throughout each day, I feel incredibly guilty. Guilty because at least my kids are healthy enough to fight the cold; healthy other than having a cold; a roof over my head, a husband who is beyond my wildest expectations, a husband who has a job (which, given this economy, is a HUGE blessing in and of itself), kids who are growing and thriving, a baby inside me that is doing great and is growing and thriving, and so many more things that would cause this list to go on ad nauseum. I have so many, many, many things to be grateful for and somehow right at this very moment nothing is making me happy. Yes, one of those days.
I guess this is where I need to dig even deeper within me and concentrate not on what I wish would happen, or want to happen, wish I had, or want to have. But, instead, concentrate on ALL that I do have. I need to get on my knees and thank my Heavenly Father for all that He has blessed me with in this life but, in particular, right at this moment. Yes, one of those days.
