Yesterday and Today

Yesterday
Yesterday was parenting bliss.
At 8:15 PM, that was my report to my husband.
No attitudes.
Lots of laughter.
We were productive, peaceful, and playful.
This is a fun season of parenthood and maybe I’ll share my wisdom.
Today
Today was not parenting bliss.
At 8:23 AM, today was already difficult.
All attitudes.
Lots of tears.
We were stubborn, combative, and annoyed.
This is a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad season of parenthood and maybe my parenting skills need a serious tune up.
“Lord, help me to live this day, quietly, easily. To lean upon Thy great strength, trustfully, restfully. To wait for the unfolding of Thy will, patiently, serenely. To meet others, peacefully, joyously. To face tomorrow, confidently, courageously.” – St. Francis of Assisi
