Deuteronomy 6:5-7

Love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. These commandments that I give you today are to be on your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up.

Sad...

I am letting Maddie go to her grandparents house a night early (she will be leaving in a few minutes and staying 2 nights)...and it is SO hard for me. I don't like being away from her and I am worried about how she will do. I just keep praying that it all goes really well. They were taking her tomorrow night anyway, but 2 nights is a LONG time for a little girlie to be away from her mommy! I just decided that I need a break as I am still feeling super run-down and really achy. It is hard for me to even take care of her all day...I get so tired. So, call the grandparents and a-runnin' they come! They are so excited. I am sad. I will miss her lots. It will be weird to go to sleep without hearing her breathing in the next room. It will be hard to get up in the morning whenever I want (maybe that will be good?). I just love her so much and hate to be away from her! Worry, worry, worry. I pray that the Lord protects her and helps me to enjoy some quiet rest. I already cannot wait to see her on Sunday. Ah...letting go. I am not good at this.

You don't have to be really good at letting go when your daughter is 14 months old, so don't feel guilty about it! Just trust the Lord that she will be okay, enjoy your time with your hubby, and look forward to the reunion with Maddie on Sunday!!

i understand.

it always helps me to remind myself that God loves my kids way more than i could ever be capable of loving them.

and just think: you'll probably get to put her in lots of time-outs after she gets spoiled by the grandma!
