Reality

I read this post this morning and it made me laugh . . . Yep, that's the way it is! You just don't get everything done the way you did with baby number one.

I don't like to admit it but it's special at our house to actually be dressed in pj's for bed. Usually we are so tired and can't wait for the quiet hour or two before we retire that we tuck them in just like they are, although now Japheth can get them on on his own and Jeremiah most of the time too.

I know, I know it's not the way I dreamed of raising children . . . reality has a way of setting in and circumstances are different too than one imagined life would be . . .

But "He is good; (and) His mercy endureth forever." Psalm 107:1b
