2 Down. 2 to Go.

Ladies and Gentlemen. I finished another book. It only took me like 2 months, but I did it!!
Oh my goodness, this book was so so sweet! It is such a tender and honest book with real characters with real and honest feelings and there is so much faith and Jesus all wrapped in this novel! I recommend it 110%! I'd let you borrow this book from me, but I borrowed it from Emily. If you remember earlier this summer, I said that I was going to read 4 books by the end of 2010. Well...we're getting close, now aren't we?! I think the next book I'm going to pick up is The Help. My mom read it (probably in like 4 hours) and she just oooos and ahhhhs over it and said that I'll just love it. So that'll be my next book to read, and I think I may start tomorrow. I'll let you know how that goes :)

Frustrated:
I was supposed to start teaching at another daycare today, but there were only 3 kids that were signed up, so that's another day where I cannot make any money. Stellar. I was really looking forward to it, and was fully prepared and ready to meet some new, cute faces. Well. There were only 3 faces, so I couldn't teach today. So I'm about to head back to the daycare to talk to parents and hopefully promote Kindermusik. Come on, parents! This is a great program at a phenomenal price! Get with it!! Please pray that my frustrations go away and that I can feel worthy with my very part time job. I've just been a pitiful lump of lame today, feeling sorry for myself, because I feel as though I'm not contributing financially in my family. I'm contributing a little bit, but no where near what I wish I could. I just feel silly because I don't have a full time job. I'm not going to school. I don't have kids, but yet, I'm practically a stay at home wife. That's not my thing. The laundry is ALWAYS done. My house is ALWAYS clean. The dishes are ALWAYS made. But that gets old. I want to have some variety in my life and right now, I'm a little complacent. But anyway. There's a tid bit of my venting for today. More to come, I'm sure.

Halo:
Praise Jesus. Jamie got Halo yesterday. When did he start playing? Around 5:30. What time did we go to bed? Midnight. I'm actually rather shocked he didn't play all night. He's a funny man and I love him to pieces!

This is a super short post, but I gotta head back to that daycare. Yee freakin' ha.

Love y'all and I hope you're having a wonderful Wednesday! Yay hump day!

  1. Hang in there, sweet friend! You just wait! Those parents are going to see how wonderful you are, and if they love their children at all they will be chomping at the bit to sign them up for Kindermusik! Feeling better yet? If not, here's something else for you...my discipleship group talked about discouragement the other night. Some thoughts I took away- 1. No matter where you are, someone else has been somewhere worse. 2. Ps. 23:4 says "even though I walk through the valley..." We are walking THROUGH the valley...we are NOT STUCK in the valley! Praise the Lord for that!

    Love you!

  2. Thank you so much for your sweet words of encouragement. I was certainly walking in a valley and need to climb out of it. Praise God that we are walking through valleys and not stuck in them. You are so right on that! God is good and so very sovereign and He hears my frustrations. I just gotta be patient and faithful, because He always is with me :) You're the best, Sarah! Love you and your friendship!
