Thankful for Grace
Yesterday I started a series on being thankful for toddlers. Lately I feel like I have been focusing on the crazy and chaos when I really should just slow down and appreciate the little things. Seeing it’s the month of November, I’m taking the month to appreciate the boys each day.
Today I am thankful for GRACE. Lord knows this mom needs GRACE.
There are days when I like to think I have it together, but then I spontaneously combust and turn into a monster mom. I make mistakes. I get mad. I yell. But at the end of it, my toddlers still love me. They give me grace, probably because they don’t know better – but you know what – I’ll take what I can get and for that I am thankful!
Note to self…. Grace is best when given and received.
