today was not a good day. i had too many errands to do, the kids were awful. micah started us off with a screaming jag as soon as he woke up, 30 minutes later he stopped and the tone for the day was set. now its about 9pm and most of the kids are down but not quiet. if we are lucky sydney and i will get a few minustes of uninterupted conversation and a glass of wine. most days are not this bad but some days like today i wonder what we have done. but that doesnt last long. it is hard to get 14 different people in sync and at times it boils over. the night's sleep will bring refreshing and the Lord will bring a new energy and hope with the new day. i wonder if this is what it is really all about just getting through another day still intact as a family, still set true to the course layed out before us, a little battered and bruised but never giving in. as i write this i can feel God filling my tired spirit with a new energy to tackle what tomorrow will bring. thank you Lord.
