This is the second day..

in a  row that I have at least opened up blogger! LOL  I finally updated the header pictures and changed the background. It looks much more summery now :D
Today has been a hectic day so far, but with a lot of sweet moments mixed in. To start off with, the kids all got up at 6:30 before Joshua headed out the door for work.  That's not too early for them to get up but my brain was not prepared to handle all three children's needs that early in the morning today.  I was all geared to getting my devotions and some good work in before I had to worry about breakfast, diapers, bottles, potty, and organizing play time.  I had to totally switch wave lengths and my brain did not want to do that this morning.  I finally sat the kids down for a movie and was able to get my devotions in.  I had to choose to be thankful for the day not going right. I wrote down as many things as I could think of at that moment to be grateful for about my children.  Boy, did that help or what! I am so thankful for my children.  And even though I only did a whopping 14 files for work today, I have had some very special moments with my children.
So, today's lesson for me has been in gratefulness, even when things don't go according to my plan.  Once again, learning to apply the verse, "In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you." ~1 Thessalonians 5:18
