This past week went by so fast, and I feel like we hardly did anything but you know how time still flies when you are busy feeding, cleaning, more feeding, more cleaning little ones!
This Sunday I pulled out an outfit I haven't worn in a while and remembered how much I love it.
Look at that girl - head back, knee bent, toes pointed. haha, I love it!
Mass was a little chaotic again, we hung out in the cry room the whole time. When I'm distracted the majority of the time by the kids, I try to grasp one thing (either from a reading, the homily or eucharistic prayers) to meditate on in the midst of meltdown city. Today it was Peter's trust. "But Lord, we have fished all night and caught nothing. But at your command I will lower the nets." It can be hard for me to trust when I don't know the outcome of something. Trusting in God requires Faith and so that was my meditation during Mass today, asking the Lord to increase my faith and seeking ways to surrender and trust Him more in several areas of my life.
We then had a good friend over for brunch, followed by lots of down time!

DeleteOh my goodness, I love the skirt. I used to work at New York and CO. in college and remember now why I took home absolutely no pay ;) So fun to "keep up" with your life each week, Megan!
ReplyDeleteNY&Co is definitely one of my favorite stores, although I don't shop there as much as I used to when I was a full time missionary. If I worked there, I would have no take home pay either!
DeleteOh my gosh - love your red sweater and that skirt!
ReplyDeleteoh, thank you!
DeleteFab.U.Lous!! love the pop of red with your sweater vest and who could resist the pointed toe little one. So sweet. have a great week.
