Gratituesday: Rest

Looking back, I don’t think I’ve really rested since we got back from my cousins’ funeral in May. 

Since then, we’ve been on the go and running like crazy.  I never really like telling someone, “We’re so busy.”  Who’s NOT busy?  I’ve always felt like that was just a silly thing to say to people. 

But yeah, we’ve been busy.

And my body finally had enough.  I have asthma, so anytime I get sick, it hits my lungs and knocks me flat. 

So now, I’m doing just what I need to do:  rest.

I’m so thankful that I am able to rest.  Matt and the boys know that rest is just what Mommy needs right now.  They are SO the greatest. 

The boys keep saying things like, “Is there anything I can get you Mommy?” and “Do you need me to re-fill your water Mommy?”  And then sometimes….”Can I just lay down for a while with you Mommy?” 

Pray for Matt to get the rest he needs while he tries to juggle all of his work and mine too…

This Gratituesday, I am so thankful to be getting the rest that I need so that I can soon be the wife and mama that I need to be for my family.

Please share what YOU’RE thankful for this Gratituesday!!
