Well the boy will be starting Mother’s Day Out next week. I am really excited about it. I have been pretty stressed over the past few weeks and have been finding it hard to get some “me” time. So I called and the class has ONE open spot and if we want it, it’s ours. So he’s signed up and will go every Tuesday from 9:00 – 2:30. And now that it’s set and he’s in… I have to admit I’m feeling some guilt. False guilt, but it’s there none the less. I know to be a good mother I have to take care of myself, and being stressed out most of the day doesn’t do any of us any good. So I know that’s a plus. I just feel a bit guilty that I’m doing this more for me than for Daniel. He will love it, I have no doubt. I had a choice to either do Music day or Motor Lab day and I didn’t even think twice. The boy loves music. With a passion more on fire than mine, the boy LOVES his music. I guess it’s just that I haven’t ever sent him to something like this. I know we both need it though, so we’re excited! And the best part is that his Moms Day Out class will be at the same church that our Wednesday BSF is at. So he’ll be in the same place both days. It’s worked out great and so I guess instead of allowing false guilt to cloud this fun day, I’m going to put on some music and praise God for working this all out in the span of 4 hours. Man, He is FAST! Pray for deliverance from stress and, BAM – here it is.
What will I do with my time?? All of you that have had kids in Mother’s Day Out… what did you do? Clean house? Read? Shop? Gimme some ideas!
Kim – If you will go back and re-read my comment, taking out all of the emotion, you will see that I said “when SATAN attacks”, not “when Kim attacks”. I firmly believe that when we are in the midst of God’s will for our life, we are prime targets for satan. He wants nothing more than to destroy out walk with God and make us second guess our calling. And yes, sometimes he will use other people, and even fellow Christians to knock us off our walk with God. Satan does not want us to have a relationship with God. That is very clear. And so anything that would deter us from that special relationship, satan will use to hurt us. No, I did not call you satan. But I do believe that perhaps he played on your emotional side and is pushing you continue this argument when clearly my site has nothing to do with it. I commented on the other site because she has become someone I am praying deeply for and I wanted to encourage her. I am sorry if you did not understand that. I did not in the least call you satan or Lucifer. I’m sure in re-reading what I said you will find that you came to that conclusion on your own after mis-interpreting what I wrote.
