playing house

during the day sometimes i feel like i am playing house.

like my life can't possibly be mine.

 

my husband is off working a job he really enjoys.

my 4 big boys are all safely tucked in their schools learning.

and it is just me and my bo christian at home.

 

i putter around cleaning up while he plays.

we read books and sing.

we might run an errand or meet husband for lunch.

us playing with the phone and camera.

a couple of years ago during a very stressful season

a friend asked me what i wished my next year to look like.

just dreaming i said:

for my boys to be in good schools and me to be at home with another baby.

i prayed a lot during that stressful time.

God has blessed me with more than i wished for.

this is so much better than anything i could have dreamed up.

i can now say that i am thankful for that stressful time.

my family would not be where we are today if it wasn't for those trials.

God is good all the time.
