rough day

Jasper and I are having quite the rough day today.

It's nothing major.

Just rain. dreary weather. cranky and fidgety toddler. crowded meijer. exhausted momma = rough morning

normal parenting stuff. But it's still been quite the rough one nonetheless.

Andrew and I always, and I mean always, talk on the phone every day during lunch. Today, though, I sent him this text:

"hi love. I would love to chat with you today, but I truly don't have the mental, emotional, or physical strength to talk. sorry. :o( "

As I was putting our groceries away just now, the following verse kept running through my head.

"The Lord is my strength and my shield; in Him my heart trusts and I am helped. My heart exults. And with my song, I give thanks to Him" Psalm 28:7

It's the verse that's always running through my head no matter what.

It was my lifeline when we were going through our infertility struggle, when we were rejoicing when we found out we were pregnant with Jasper, during my C-section operation, during sleepless nights and tired mornings, during good times and rough times.

And I'm so thankful that it kept going. and going. and going. and going through my mind this morning. I love that verse and it's always a huge refreshment to my heart and soul.

But still, if you think of it, please pray for the Ohio Meades today, that we will survive the day.
