All in one day

Let me start of by telling you I feel fan freaking tastic!

For the past few months I've been praying for some things and today God answered three of my prayers.

I had prayed for a change in my routine, because for the past few months (I guess since the New Year) I started to feel like I was in a rut. Day in and day out I was going through the same exact routine, and I started to get bored. I said to Kyle just the other day That I need to either change things up or quit and start all over. And I meant it. I was getting bored with work, with play and even with myself. I just needed to do something new.. something else. I started running a few weeks back but that wasn't enough, so then I decided to change my diet - that worked but I still craved something more, something more intense.


I prayed for more time with my family - Man I gotta tell y'all juggling mom/wife/business owner/boss can be mentally and physically draining. There are days where I am at the daycare for 13 or more hours nonstop - without a lunch breakfast or break... I have to keep the books, manage staff, address parent/child needs, design curriculum, manage a budget all with a smile. And by the end of most days I feel like going home, crawling in bed and staying there until the morning. I don't feel like conversation at dinner, I don't feel like bath time giggles and some times I definitely don't feel like reading no bedtime story... And that just aint even right. At times I feel like the whole point of me starting a daycare was for me to spend more time with my kids and now all I'm doing is telling them to "talk to daddy about it... "

I also prayed for time alone with my spouse - This kind of ties in with prayer #2, but on a more intimate level. Bu the time we get the kids to bed I'm like "look dude, you touch me one mo' time and you gonna be sorry." I really can't remember the last time Kyle and I spend time alone - with no interruption or without worrying about the kids. I mean I really talk to kyle more via text than I do in person... NOW THAT AINT RIGHT!

The next three post (which will take time to get out of my head and into a post) will detail how my prayers were answered. Please read along.....
