For three weeks straight, it seemed that Titus and I had something scheduled almost everyday. Yuck! I'm a SAHM and truth be told, I like being at home and should be at home taking care of my little family. A few days into our rat race, I felt myself praying for peace, quiet, and rest.
Well, God answered my prayers with a sick little boy and a sick mama to boot. Not exactly the way I would have liked to have been forced to stay-at-home, but sometimes He must take measures into His hands. I knew my week's plans would quickly be changing when my active, never stops moving, little boy just wanted to cuddle, not move, and definitely not be put down.
Finally, I too just gave myself the permission to sit on the couch with my sick little boy and not feel guilty for napping when he does. It happens. Mamas need naps too!

Sometimes in life we have to give ourselves time. Time to figure out what it is that God's working on inside of us, what our hearts are feeling and our minds are thinking. Sometimes we just need a break.
So that's where I've been and what I've been doing.



I hope you're both feeling better and rested very soon! That cuddle time is essential :)!!!!
ReplyDeleteI hate it when they are sick, but love the cuddles that come with it. Hope you are both feeling better very soon.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you both are feeling better now. Praying for all our health over the holidays.
ReplyDeleteI know the feeling, so much to do, yet when your bodies need a rest, it's almost a welcome retreat. Hope you all are healthy and well rested before the Wolfe pack unites.
