As each day goes by and I get older (hence a birthday this week - "41"), I find myself wondering where all the time has gone. Remember when you were growing up or when you had a child and all the adults were saying, "Enjoy this, time will pass by so quickly". That's how I feel daily, never enough time to clean, never enough time to just play with the kids, never enough time to read, do a hobby, spend time alone with your spouse. Having a 10 year old son & a 3 year old son, can be trying at times - their activities are not the same, they have different needs. I feel myself being pulled in all different directions - thinking "WHEN IS IT ME TIME!" (Does that ever happen to you?)
"Sons are indeed a heritage from the LORD, children, a reward (Psalm 127:3). I believe that with all my heart, It only takes a second to look @ my 2 boys and see how blessed I am. I think back to 11 years ago when all I died was cry and pray for just one child, just one Lord. I am so thankful that he blessed me with them. But I still have a hard time, just stopping when they need me to listen and play with them. In the back of my mind, I'm going I have this to do, here to go, etc. I pray that God will help me to Stop and Listen Daily to the needs of my children and husband because "Time really if passing to quickly".
