Order Equals Peace

We started our schedule change today (that was to start tomorrow) because the kids knew it was going to happen and they just did it. Our morning went very well. Beth didn’t understand that she was able to get out of her room after 7, so she didn’t finish everything, but I think she understands it now, so hopefully it will go smoothly tomorrow. Kyle did a great job today; he needed one reminder of what time it was and that was all. He was very helpful to Beth is morning also. She wanted to have oatmeal but didn’t remember exactly how to do it, and even though Kyle hates it and I don’t think he has ever made it, he still helped her so I could have my devotions. It was really sweet and a wonderful time to thank God for my wonderful children and how much he has shown us and changed so quickly!

Another thing… Jim and I have been really enjoying our time together, and the fact that I am not stressed out as much. I jokingly said to him yesterday, I sure like you much better when I am not stressed, and I like myself too. It is amazing how much stress can change your perspective on things. Even people you love and want to please can’t have what they need or want, because there is nothing to give them. I am VERY thankful for Ladies Sunday School and Julie because she has helped me so much over the past couple of weeks; what a blessing it has been to have time with her. I am thrilled with what has changed so far, and we still have things to talk about. I am not sure I can even comprehend how wonderful my days can be!

Thank you Julie and Praise to God!
