Today was just an ordinary day. Home with Nate and a list of things to do. I couldn't get moving this morning, and Nate and I took a mid-morning nap together. Looking back, it was actually the best part of my day. But when I woke up and realized I wouldn't be able to complete my "list" for the day, I began to feel irritated. I had also anticipated having a few child-free hours today, and it just didn't work out. I was so exasperated over this all day that I failed to make the most of the day that I did have. I hate when I do that. I allowed my unmet expectations to ruin what should have been a perfectly good day. And I let it ruin a perfectly good date night, too. :(
So, what's the lesson here? Look for the blessings. Remember that life is short. Tomorrow is another day and everything on my list can wait until tomorrow. And finally, get over it already! That's what I should have done.
Praying that tomorrow is a better day, and that I can choose a better attitude! Thank you, Lord, for loving me when I'm sometimes so hard to love. You never turn away from me.
