Sometimes, you start the day later than you hoped and did not get your quiet time in before the kids woke up.
Sometimes, you could not read aloud with awesome character voices, and were actually making a grocery list in your head while reading.
Sometimes, you forgot about that appointment, or raise your voice out of fear of being late.
Sometimes, there is so much squabbling or a negative attitude at the table, that I am not sure how you will make it to lunch time (btw, what IS for lunch?).
This is me on a weekly basis. Then one day, you find a note from your littlest girl on your laptop. It brings you to you to your knees. Thank you, Lord, for the mission of motherhood. Thank you for each moment in their lives. It is an honor.
This was a note was inspired by a Thanksgiving study called Gathered from homeschool mama, SarahRuth at Kindle Togetherness.
