I find so often, when I get home at the end of a workday, that the last little smidgeon of energy I have left goes into Michael. And poor Sean; by the time he gets out of bed to start his work day, I've none left.
I keep telling myself that it's only for a season. Someday we're not going to have opposite schedules and we'll get to spend some real time together. Someday I'll get to stay home with Michael and care for him and Sean and our home the way I want to... :) And I look forward to that day with an eagerness that cannot be described. But it makes my heart soar. :)
But for now, for a season, for the time being (the same time that seems to fly so fast right past me) I attempt every morning to be a grace, a blessing to the people I encounter on a daily basis. The kids I see. The parents I talk to. Every day my heart breaks for the people I work with. Every day my heart breaks for my family. And every day, my heart thanks the Lord that we're eating and staying dry and warm.
So right now, as the time flies, I make every attempt to make every moment with Sean and Michael be beautiful.
And that's why I've been so neglecting of this blog...
For a season...
