A beautiful moment happened today.
You will find that motherhood is not always glamours or enjoyable. You will have screaming children. A shirt covered in who knows what. You will wake up in a bad mood because a certain toddler kicked you in the back all night and you didn't really sleep.
These days suck.
It is hard to be patient and kind on those days. To be quick to love and slow to anger. My advice? Take a quiet minute and say a payer. Even if you have to lock yourself in the bathroom. Heavenly Father loves you and wants you to be happy. If you are feeling overwhelmed in your calling as a mother, ask for help.
This happened today. Thankfully you fell asleep and I was able to sit quietly and listen to some peaceful church music. The mess house can wait, for this moment I need to regain sanity. My prayer has been answered and I feel calmed and renewed.
Trust in your Heavenly Father.
Confessions of a first time mom. If pregnancy and children came with an instruction manual these are the things that I wish would be included...
