Tips and Tools Tuesday

I don't have too many tips today. I feel like a failure, actually.  

My tip is that if you have an insane child like Josiah, don't take showers. 

Because if you do, you might discover that he has found a way to reach the scissors that you tried to place OUT of his reach, and has proceeded to CUT his baby brother's finger and make it bleed. 

Yes, this actually happened in my house this morning.

Just call me Job.

Who would have known when I looked into this little baby's eyes in front of the Christmas tree two years ago, that he would have grown into such a little terror? Look at that scowl on his face, though... I should have KNOWN! It's kind of an innocent scowl though... very very deceiving!!

Needless to say, I have had an extremely difficult past several WEEKS.

SIGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You are NOT alone sweet friend! Have you read my blog lately! God's got something up His sleeve for each of us. Something radical that He wants to do in our hearts as we go through the beautiful mess of raising up these treasures... For me, with the TWO crazy little ones, I am journeying towards some small understanding of acceptance with joy... something only He can work out in me... because honestly, most days, I feel at a total loss. Praying for you what I pray for myself, courage to persevere and eyes to see what He sees. He's got you sweet friend, even on the days that He seems so far away. :)
