It was one of those days. Things started out fine for a while. Then afternoon/evening hit and things went downhill. I'm not going to go into all the details. Just a few things. Each of the kids and I took turns in tears. I lost it with Jr. and even though I felt guilty, I was frustrated enough that it took a while before I was able to go in to tell him I was sorry. I tell you though, prayer really does help. When you are frustrated with someone, whether it's someone in your own family (in my case, children- aaaargh) or someone else, you really can turn to the Lord to help you get over those feelings and help you ask for forgiveness (even if it takes a while to calm down) from the person you were frustrated with.
Anyway, by dinner and bedtime, the kids and I were getting along and I was even able to get some cute pictures of them dancing to a "Pajama Time" song.
Hopefully tomorrow will be a better day, but I'm glad for how the end of the day turned out compared to the middle.
I know how you feel - we had a rough day today too. Let's just say that the boys went to bed EARLY tonight (and by early I mean like an hour early). I hope tomorrow is better for you!
ReplyDeleteI know those kind of days. I need to use prayer more in those instances. The Lord really helps!
