Well, we are traveling back from a wonderful trip to South Dakota! I am so thankful to my husband for letting us travel up there to be refreshed by such great friends! We had a great time! But why, always on trips, to kids get sick? Lillian got a cold which turned into conjunctivitis and had to go on antibiotic drops, Levi ruptured a blood vessel in his eye and that got Lilly's junk so he also had to go on eye drops, and Izzy got a terrible cold that it made it impossible for her to sleep so she was up every 2 hours in the night! We got ourselves all out of wack! My new phrase is, "It's all for my sanctification!" Despite all that stuff, we really did enjoy ourselves. I love seeing my kids play so well with their friends even after 6 months of being apart. They have so much joy in their little hearts and are so pleased with the small things in life. It does my soul good to get away from the obligations of home and watch my kids and remember that I can never get this time back so I better enjoy every minute! Besides just having time to love on and be loved on by really good friends, that is the biggest thing I walked away from on this trip. My kids are only this little for a short time. My kids will never be this little again and I want to treasure it and not hurry through it. They are a delight to observe and I am blessed to be their mom!
