Mondays are actually the only day of the week where I intentionally focus the majority of my attention on Noah. It's kind of "Spotlight on Noah" day. I was a little tired today, so I wasn't as energetic as I normally am but we were still able to get out to our new, neat little place we found, that has like 12 swingsets inside a showroom with 2 big trampolines. It's this company that sells swingsets and slides. They have a freeplay twice a week in their showroom that's free for kids 8 and under from 10am -1pm. I'm keeping it a secret, because as of now not many people know about it. We made it to that, which gives me a chance to run around with Noah a little bit and jump on the trampoline with her and stuff. Then we went to the Vitamin Shoppe. We vacuumed the car and came home. She had a little T.V. time, ate lunch, bathroom Then we hung out in her room reading books and going over her sight words. Then we designed an invitation to give to her daddy for the fashion show that we are doing for him tonite at 5pm. We got the idea from one of her barbie books. I like to do special stuff with her on Mondays.
When I begin my day with a fast pace and a mind to "get things done" it really never ends well. I burn out pretty fast. When I take a "rest stop" at the very beginning of my day with God and linger a little, the day always goes better. Micah 7:7 says: Therefore I will look to the LORD; I will wait for the God of my salvation; My God will hear me. It seems as if when I don't start my day with God a cycle of self-dependence starts and it never ends well. When I start my day with God, dependence on Him starts my day and He reminds me during morning devotional time to lean on Him to get through the day. It helps me to not get "caught up" I pray that for today, that I don't get caught up. Noah is home from school, not feeling very well. I just want to lean on God and trust Him to bring her comfort and help her to heal today. I'm praying that I to would...
