I love November! I am a shopper, so Black Friday is always fun for me. I'm also a hunter and hunting season begins. Also, I really LOVE that every November I see people(including myself) reflecting on their lives and remembering to be thankful for what they have. We seem to go 11 months of the year being thankful, but forgetting to really proclaim how blessed we are. This month I'd really like to remember to do that myself, so I plan to share that with you.
Today is Day 1 and I woke up exhausted after being up with my teething toddler last night. As I got ready for my day I was increasingly lacking motivation. Usually, I try to be supermom(which no one is, but we try right?) I try to home school my preschooler, maintain my house, teach my toddler manners and language skills. I also, try to have dinner prepared for my husband,read my bible, and so much more. If you are a mom you know this list goes on and on. I thought to myself today. I have no need to be super mom. I can just be mom and no one will perish. So, that I did. I did make some much needed list, do some lesson planning, read to the kids,throw a load of laundry in, but I did it all in lounge clothes hanging in the comfort of my living room. Today I am utterly grateful that I am able to work at home and be with my kids. I am thankful that on a crazy day I don't have to be super-mom, mom will do just fine and most of all I'm thankful that Jesus is my Savior.
