Lately I feel that just making a list of what needs to get done would be a big improvement :)
I am just really in need of encouragement in my stay-at-home mom life. I am feeling like I am doing a lousy job at keeping the house going and raising the boys (I often feel so inadequate at this task!). My encouragement tank is rock-bottom. I don't think Andy realizes how much encouragement I need, especially after his travel weeks. Those are ramping up again for a while, sigh. I realize I don't encourage him enough either and it can feel so hopeless and overwhelming at times to really have a growing marriage. Not that things are bad, I just know how self-centered I am and want encouragement all the time from him, yet I don't do the same for him. Lord, I need your help. Ahh, no answers for now.
Laura- you are intentional mom. You pour energy into giving each of your sons what they need. You don't have laid back, easy kiddos- you have high energy boys and you are giving it your all. You have a gifted son (probably two?) and you are challenging him and helping him continue to excel. You CAN do this, you ARE doing this. As for Andy- look up that 30 day encouragement challenge from DeMoss- helps you stay focused on encouragin him and not just yourself- I SOOOOO struggle with that too! LIFE!!!:P
