My Week in Review

I am having a bit of a hard time reviewing my week because it went by quite quickly. It is true what they say about this season in life...it is really moving on. Which I am thinking will lead me to my HIGH: Our time ticker passed the 8 month mark! Yeah! I'm adding one more high for all the Scentsy orders that appeared on my website (see post below).

I guess it is a good thing when you have to really think about a low. So my LOW for this week would be getting through school in the morning with the boys. I think all three of us are ready to be done and sittin' at the pool! Our testing material came this week.....should've added that to the HIGH section! :)

My LESSON this week came from Ann Voskamp: "Love is patient. Parenting's this gentle way of bending over in humility to help the scraped child up because we intimately know it takes a lifetime to learn how to walk with Him. Patience. Love always begins with patience."

How often have I been that "scraped child" that the Lord has gently picked up? Too many times to count. What a privilege to extend that hand to my children as we learn to walk with Him together. (Especially during school time!)

  2. Hi Kelly,
    I was wondering when the new batches of shirts will be ordered. I got my order sent in about 2 weeks ago. I'm excited to get it. Thanks!!

  3. I just shared your lesson with my husband and it really gave us some insight into our future role as parents. How often we are so quick to judge and how grateful we should be that our Father in heaven doesn't extend that same judgement! He just gently lifts us up and draws us to Him...and we should extend that came grace to our children, and everyone!
