a beautiful day


wow! what a gorgeous day! i'm sitting here in my new office my husband set up for me looking out the window to sunshine and listening to the frogs singing at the top of their little lungs. (Do frogs have lungs?) i just got my girls off to school and got back to my house to start the daily house work...fun fun. i was thinking on my 30 minute drive back home about all my blessings in my life that i often look at as work, or sometimes even a burden. i felt so convicted but i then felt like god was telling me that "today is a new day, a new beginning. this is the day i care about julie, live it for me." it was all i could do but thank him for his amazing love for me. so today i am gonna try live the most out of this day, even if that involves laundry. i can't explain what sunshine does for my soul but i just feel alive inside. i called my husband on the way to school today to tell him a funny story about something ashton said today. i was hurrying them out the door today in a rush as usual, and as we were backing out of the garage i asked the kids, "why do you guys have to go to school so far away anyways?" there was a bit of a pause and i heard ashton pipe up from the back" mom, it isn't our fault you and dad stuck our house in the forest" oh my word, i could of died laughing. toby didn't think it was as funny as i did, guess you just had to be there, but i love seeing my kid's personalities developing...so cool! well i have a mountain of laundry calling my name and an extremely large house needing to be cleaned, better get to it. live your best today and keep the lord right in the middle of it!
