Do you ever feel...


Like your life is like an SNL skit called "Deep Thoughts?"
Like no one is listening?
Like you aren't tall enough?
Like you aren't skinny enough?
Like your house will never be simultaneously clean in all areas?
Like God was crazy to bless you with such beautiful kids?
Like you aren't smart enough?
Like no one appreciates what you do?
Like you are missing direction in your life?
Like you are the luckiest person in the world?
Like family is the most amazing thing God created?
Like raising kids is the absolute hardest thing you will ever do in your lifetime?
Like an ATM?
Like a laundress, short order cook, chambermaid and chauffeur?
Like being a kid is so much easier than being a parent? Why didn't I realize that when I was a kid?

Just curious.

Thanks for sharing truth, Susan. It IS true, all of it! 100% true. Life is Good-Better-Best? or Bad, Worser, Worst? Yep, the answer my friends is blowin' in the wind....it all depends which way the wind is blowin. Looking so forward for warm spring breezes.

Yes, you are human, don't forget, and remember that God only gives us what we can handle. I don't know how you dealt with the effects of the house fire, but you did. You are an amazing person, an amazing mom, and an amazing friend. I'm glad that you have returned home. It sounds like Texas is treating you and your family well. (smile)
