A big fat sigh
of relief.
There’s been things going on at church that have left me feeling exhausted and exasperated. Thankfully, tonight, I think most of them have been worked out.
See, I get a little overwhelmed over things before they even become overwhelming. That way, when they actually become overwhelming, I’ve already gone through those emotions and I’m fully equipped to handle whatever is going on. God blessed me with that weirdness and I am thankful.
With Theresa (Our children’s minister) leaving, there’s been so so so much to do in the past week. Well, this past week has been a so so so busy one for me personally. With a big 3 year old party on Saturday, two Open Houses this week for Uppercase Living, I’m just feeling the stress over having to be at very many places in very little days.
And another big thing that’s happening tomorrow. Oh my goodness. Big Sister has her MEET THE TEACHERS day from 10-11. So, please, expect sobbing and tons of pictures. I’m so nervous I could throw up. But I am so thrilled I could cry. I’m sure lots of both will go on. Well, hopefully just the crying.
My little girl. My tiny little baby.
It just hurts my heart to see her getting so big. And I am praying so hard that J and I are doing a good job raising her and teaching her. This whole parenting thing is a lot of stress!
She’ll never be that little again.

I thought the part I sat in with you on went better than we were anticipating???? I don’t mind to help you with the part I said no on …..just don’t want to fully be the leader on that because ultimately… it’s dissappointing when people don’t follow through with what they say they’ll do! I don’t want to set myself up for that dissappointment!
I’ll be sending up some prayers for you and preschool today! You CAN do it Mama!!

I am so glad to hear everything went well. I have been praying so hard! Today is the BIG day. Oh my goodness, I just can’t believe she is going to preschool. Where has the time gone? I can’t wait to hear how she did and how YOU did! It is so hard for the mommies, but you will be okay! (I hope there is no ducky in the room!)

I feel your heart pain. It seems like just last week that we trying to get Ava to say more than two words, and now she gets in trouble for some of things she says! And I only have the one right now, so I’m trying savor every moment (even the “trouble” ones).
Hope things will be calmer for you next week!
