“This week we want to…” go to "Kid DJ Day" at our favorite Christian radio station The House Fm. It's a little over an hour away, so not a long drive. They have a bunch of fun stuff to do. We went last year and the girls got to talk on the air with the DJ's. It was a blast!
Here we are at last year's Kid DJ Day.
The kids are…” actually in bed and it's 11 pm. That's weird, in a good way. Gosh I love being weird! I'm sure some of you remember me talking about my "weirdness" a few weeks back. Our pastor thinks it's a good thing to be weird....in a God sort of way. I love that!
“I am learning….” how much my husband really loves me. I always have these lingering doubts, even after all of these years. This week he has been really different, not in a weird (bad) way, but in that "you've FINALLY released control over to God and now He can truly help me lead this family" kind of way. Does that make sense? Well, it makes sense in my head at least. :)
“I am struggling with…” my oldest daughter. I want so badly to have an ADULT relationship with her, to meet her boyfriend that she's really serious with but refuses to allow us to meet him. I want to talk and have meaningful conversations with her, but she's still making it seem like I am looking for that mommy/child thing and now that she's an "adult" she doesn't want me to be her "mommy". Guess what? I don't want that either!! I really really really want to move on to the next level here. I am praying about this a lot!
“This week is the first time….” I have had any "alone time" in quite some time and I spent it doing housework, which I thoroughly enjoyed! Go figure! But I'm sitting here in this beautiful, clean home and I feel so PEACEFUL!! Clutter makes me feel chaotic and crazy! I'm so glad I can feel peaceful tonight. :)
And on a side note.....I am going to go watch a few more episodes of Army Wives now. Just started on this show about a month ago on Netflix. Now that I'm addicted and almost through with 4 whole seasons, I'm gonna have a problem until season 5 is on Netflix or DVD cause you can't find the entire season online right now since it's currently airing. Blah!! LOL
I read this the other day but I'm just now getting around to commenting. I love your honesty in this post. I can only imagine how hard it must be to try and convince your adult daughter that you are ready to be friends with her. I hope that it gets better really soon. As for "Army Wives"... I got sucked in once. That show is addictive!
