Thankful Thrusday *trials*
At 7:30 My sweet daughter fully dressed came into my room to wake me and have me sign her homework planner.
Both children were up and dressed.
Happy and playing peacefully with each other.
Now every day I arise normally at 6 a.m. to tend to lunches and ready the kids.
Give out vitamins, make breakfast you know "be a mom".
This morning my children were responsible to tend to there duties and needs.
Dash even fed the dogs and chickens.
All this mother longs to do is to create two interdependent adults one day who can make choices that will cause it to go well for them all the days of their life.
I know that does not mean trial free but it is for them to have a life more abundantly.
Full of good character and beauty of souls.
So tell me how very much I have to be thankful for this day I see the fruit of all my lovin' hark work as two children practiced a bit of secure independence.
My body got the rest IT demanded :) and all is well with my world.
They happily look forward to the homework and time with me when they get home.
It is so sweet to be under the shadow of the Almighty.
Last night my jaw would not open as I laid there with Dove I prayed for her and for my jaw...
Then it happened as I held her in the hollow of my arm her hand clutched on my thumb.
Reminiscent of that train ride across Russia 12 years ago.
My jaw popped!
I can open it now about an inch.
Enough to eat some canned mandarin oranges and drink the juice this morning.
I can walk without limping a few steps today.
I can walk without limping a few steps today.
It is good with my soul for now this day is clear.
a few minor tasks but clear.
All I have need of today...to rest, make a meal for the family and water the garden.
Little laundry IF I am up to it.
Tomorrow, Saturday and Sunday I have free of any plans.
He gives rest in it's due season.
I was able to hang in there.
Yes we can endure.
It will not kill us or make us crumble.
It will not kill us or make us crumble.
Monday I will have the last knee shots.
My mobility will return within a few weeks and all will be as it was.
It is finished, maybe the list goes on but I know that it is Finished.
All that was ever needed has been supplied us.
All we have been destined to become.
All that will ever be.
It has been done.
Finished.
Simply walking through my part of the epic is all that is requested of me.
It is all that is requested of any of us.
After this was written I saw today's topic
see perfect measure
To those who endure we are given the crown of life.
We just get to polish it up once in a while.
Wear it well.
We earned it.
