I am enough.
Why is it that
this statement can be so hard to believe sometimes? There’s always something
else, someone else, another load, another project.
Can I be honest
with you? We’ve been living out of our dryer for over a week. If I would have
told you this last year it would have had 10 excuses attached to the end of
that confession. Attempts at justifying my “less than” actions, or “lack of
actions.”
I had folding
laundry on my list of to-do’s today and you know what, it didn’t get done. What
I’m not telling you is the things that have taken importance in this last week
or so.
If I count my success based on what’s not
done, I’ll never be enough.
Sisters, you are enough.
Our girls are 10
months apart. We had our baby for a week before our 14 month old came into our
home. Everyone encouraged me to get the girls on the same napping schedule. I
quickly learned that this didn’t work for me. I’d rather stagger their naps so
I could give them all my attention for a little bit of the day. This being said,
normally a portion of their nap does fall at the same time. Today, our baby
didn’t fall right to sleep so I laid on the bed with her and we “talked.” When
she finally fell asleep she was holding onto my finger. My scheduled time to
get things done quickly went out the window.
