It's been a while.....

So sorry it's been a while since my last post. It's crazy how wasy it is to get caught up in the hustle & bustle of life. I mean it's already April!!!! Where has this year went? I've really tried to cherish life & live it to the fullest lately. There has been a lot of tragedies happening in our area & it really opens your eyes to how precious life is. I know you've heard "We're not promised tomorrow", but do we really grasp that reality?? I know I don't at times when I'm rushing around screaming @ my 2 year old to hurry up b/c we're gonna be late for something. Or when I take for granted holding Carson a little while longer to go fold clothes or do dishes. B/c these, in my mind, are things that NEED to be done! But in reality I'd rather hold my children & play w/ them forever if these "chores" didnt exist! As would every parent. When these stressful times occur, I've really tried to step back & look @ the situation. Do I really have to do these dishes RIGHT NOW or fold these clothes RIGHT NOW when my 2 year old is begging me to put her puzzle together w/ her. The answer is NO!!! Please know that I don't always put these things to the side but after I get them done I wished I had waited & spent time w/ my beautiful children &  husband. The same way we flow through our day haphazardly(spelling) we also get into a routine in or relationship w/ Christ. I am the first to stand up & admit to this. I have a huge burden speaking the words of Christ to people & praying outloud. I'm not shy nor am I quiet. I just choke when I want to pray out loud or talk w/ someone about Christ. (This is another reason I've started this blog, to break these walls I have up) So please bare w/ me b/c this is a new beginning for me. Thanks for your time & remember to Praise God at all times!!!
