One of Those Days…

It’s been “one of those days”…
One of those days when you’d rather just stack the dishes “neatly” than actually wash them.
One of those days when you know that if the “Mom of the Year” award was being decided, and your name came up, the committee would laugh at the suggestion – or despairingly roll their eyes.
One of those days when you realize you didn’t eat breakfast, but then figure that saved calories, so you can just have some chocolate at 10am.
One of those days when you know there are chores to be done, but just figuring out which to do first is overwhelming.
One of those days when you long for nap time, but hate yourself for wishing away the day and time with your kids.
One of those days when you’re hit smack in the face with the reality that you CAN’T do it all and you’re not supposed to.
One of those days when you’re forced to fall into God’s arms and surrender.
One of those days when you realize how blessed you are.
(I’ve been having a lot of “those days” lately)
