Sometimes life has a way of making me feel that I am hanging on by a thread and barely holding on. The last month has been a trying one for our family. Half of this month was spent traveling between states doing our best to take care of loved ones. Only to be met by the lack of appreciation or maybe better stated as a lack of understanding of the concern and intent behind the care. It has been an eye opener to be in a caretaker role and while feelings have gotten hurt across the board it has been a struggle to remember that we are called to do this all in love. Even when things don’t turn out the way the plans were made (and they didn’t!) it never once changed the love that motivated the plans that were made. It has been a humbling experience to know that doing what you know is right isn’t always going to produce the warm fuzzies and thanks that you might think you deserve but rather it may be met with objection and simply knowing that you did your best.
In an effort to teach the princess about the life lessons her mommy is continually learning we planted seeds this week. Waiting in anticipation for our flowers to sprout and bloom I know that we are like those seeds. Firmly planted and ready to grow.
