I’m so ready to throw in the towel today, and it’s only 2:45pm. And I haven’t even been able to shower. I’ve got two very congested girls. My theory is our 3 year old got our 8 week old sick. Which means one cranky toddler that wants to believe she’s boss and doesn’t take it… Continue reading Apparently it’s Meltdown Monday today
I feel like I am beginning a new chapter in life, and this first page in my book begins with God. For some time now I have felt this desire to connect with God on a deeper level.
