I want a new job...

Well this morning I had every intention of putting in my notice as "mom".  You know those times when you feel like you have too many irons in the fire and your kids wake you up talking on their walkie talkies. That was my morning.

I have felt so over whelmed lately. I have been asking God why women have to be so busy and born natural multi-taskers. I'm making food, cleaning, helping with homework, talking on the phone and trying to keep people happy. With R's illness when he hits a low spot I end up having to run behind and picking up where he leaves off. Or if he's sick sometimes I have to fill in, such as the case this weekend, I got to help put in cabinets with Papa.

Well I kinda got put in my place today. I went to the church where I work, for services today. We do this once a year to celebrate our preschool. Pastor Mark just happened to be talking about the Proverbs 31 women. The Lord really spoke to me through his sermon. Allowing me to see first that I am his creation and He created me this way for a reason and second to bring Him glory. Sometimes I get wrapped up in my self and yes I am doing things for others, but not for the right reasons.

So here I go, a new week, a new lesson learned.
