Today's Inspiration comes from guest blogger noreply@blogger.com (House of Smiths) Be sure to check out their blog! I found an article the other day that really struck a cord with me. I've been trying to hunt it down for the past two days, and for the LIFE of me, I can't find it. But when I read it on my phone, I quickly highlighted and copied parts of it into my notebook so I could send it to Cason later.
Within minutes I was crying and laughing all at once, and I knew I had to share it with you too, because as women, I think we all feel these things from time to time.
In my whirlwind to copy and paste, I missed some parts, so I've filled them in. If you know where this article is, I'd love a link so I can put it here and give credit where credit is due to the author :)
Explaining to your Husband how your day was.
"It was the best of times and the worst of times. There were moments when my heart was so full I thought I might explode, and there were other moments when my senses were under such intense assault that I was CERTAIN I’d explode.
I was both lonely and absolutely desperate to be alone.
I was saturated—just BOMBARDED with touch and then the second I put down the baby, I yearned to smell her sweet skin again.
I was simultaneously bored out of my skull and completely overwhelmed with so much to do.
Today was too much and not enough. It was loud and silent. It was brutal and beautiful. I was at my very best today and then, just a moment later, at my very worst.
Husband—when your day is completely and totally dependent upon the moods and needs and schedules of tiny, messy, beautiful kids, your day is ALL OF THE THINGS and NONE OF THE THINGS, sometimes within the same three minute period.
But I’m not complaining.
This is not a complaint, so don’t try to FIX IT.
