We’ve all experienced it… after a long and wonderful time you hit it…<\/p>\n
The Wall.<\/p>\n
Over the past month: Matt has started back at seminary, Summer has ended and school has started for Lexi (the child I watch), our Pastor has been out of the office due to a shoulder surgery<\/span> so Matt has been “on call”, Matt has started and finished preaching his first sermon series, Rachael has started making a pattern of waking in the middle of the night and refusing to nap interspersedly<\/span>, Abi<\/span> has had many “grumpy” days where little satisfies her, I have been having headaches, our 3 year anniversary and 3 days of festivities ensued (including 2 late nights after Dave\/Busters and King’s Island), and we stayed the weekend at my parent’s house with just me, the kids, and a favorite helper so Jes<\/span>, Mom and I could sing a trio in church.<\/p>\n Yes, world, now that all this has happened we find ourselves at the foot of the wall…. in pieces….<\/p>\n So for the next few days I have vowed to just run the normal routine, normal nap\/bedtimes, normal schedules. And I’m hoping by us getting back to normal Rachael will begin to sleep better, Abi<\/span> will be less grumpy (and in turn all of us will be less grumpy), we’ll all sleep a bit better and my headaches may subside. With a few lock-down, nearly pajama<\/span> days I feel the hope that normalcy will again find itself in our desiring company.<\/p>\n We have had our peaks and our valleys in this past month, but I wouldn’t trade it for the world… just happy to feel the embrace of a quiet house again. (Cue the breathing.)<\/p>\n Hope things are going well with you all…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" We’ve all experienced it… after a long and wonderful time you hit it… The Wall.
