Yesterday was one of *those* days.
Homeschooling was rocky.
Odds & ends that I thought were figured out
were unraveling before my eyes.
My glasses lost a screw on the ear piece.
My backup glasses have my old prescription and gives me a headache.
And then lets just say Aunt Flo has overstayed her welcome.
By 2 weeks.
Our girl had dress rehearsal for a local production
of Seussical the Musical
that started at 4pm and was supposed to end at 8.
Our church is having their Wednesday
dinner & classes and we thought
it would just be *perfect* to attend in one car,
leave a wee bit early and run to pick
up our girl when rehearsal was over.
I should have known that that would just
be too perfect for the day I had...
Husband was stranded at the park
after class was over and I was stranded in the parking lot
waiting for our the kids to be released
from rehearsal. At 9pm. ONE.HOUR.LATE.
(sounds like jail, doesn't it? felt like jail...)
And as I drifted off to sleep last night,
I was so blessed that I know the Lord who is in control of my life
and while He doesn't promise this life to be easy
(infact, he warns it to be just opposite!)
He does promise new mercies every morning.
Lamentations 3:23
Amen.
PS - all these images are of our girl - her new 'uniform'
for school happens in the form of a costume...
I never know what I'm going to see each day.
I'm so thankful for such a spirited and
blissfully cheerful daughter.
What a gift to be her mother especially on days like today!
