Beautiful blooms

Genesis 1:11 – “And God said, let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so.”

Rejoicing in the beauty of spring, Jolene

I have a quick temper, and a low patience level. I also dislike change. Combine all these, and you can imagine I have messed up so many times in the past weeks! One thing that always helps me, and the children, is to get outside. So the beautiful weather yesterday was so wonderful!! We are still figuring out our way here. The staying home part is not really difficult for me, as I am usually at home. But the lack of a quiet afternoon has definitely been the hardest thing. I have tried to implement quiet time, but there is always one child who simply doesn't keep quiet. Any ideas, friends?😉🙃 I hope your Tuesday is wonderful!! ❤

Just in case you need to hear this as much as I do.. Mommas, this time in our lives is so different, but remember you are doing kingdom work!! Remember, when the table is piled with wash and scattered papers. Remember when several voices are saying, "Mom, Mom, help me with this!" Remember when the house is loud, and you long for some time alone. Remember when you don't feel you are doing enough. Remember when you feel like all you do is play referee. Remember when you feed them for the 100th time😉 Remember.. You are not enough, in your own strength. But the One who knows our every need.. He is! May God bless you BIG today ❤❤

Today.. I made pancakes. Mine got extra chocolate chips🤗 Did not go to the barn. It was lovely😉 Looked at old photos and wished for summer 🌞 This one was taken in 2015. Had to restrain my children from pouncing on the mailman dropping off a package. "Coronavirus!!" I yelled. "Do not open the door till he sets the package down and walks away!"🙃 Split up 50 fights. Listened to Bible Memory for the 3d time. Reviewed the final draft on a research report. Took a half hour nap. Sighed and rolled my eyes a lot. Wore pajamas the longest I ever have (unless I am ill of course)🙂 I am thankful and blessed, so much more than I deserve!!

I combed her silver hair, full of tangles from being uncombed several days. And I remembered all the times she washed my hair when I was little. I had the thickest hair, and she patiently combed out the awful knots I always had. I rubbed her feet, as she sat on her chair, ice on her bandaged knees. Knees that were cut open and replaced. I have been contemplating how I could serve in this uncertain time we are in. Some ways I could give that matter. And I realized, this is where I am called to serve. For this moment, I am here to take care of her, as she has always done so kindly to me. Through childhood, being sick in my pregnancies, new babies, hospital stays. I am grateful and honored to return the favor.
