Exhaustion

photo by Bronwen









my tomatoes. they were delicious, but 2 is all we've had. I was anxiously awaiting a big juicy one, but before it ripened, it disappeared and I found it later in the grass with two big bites missing. It must have been a squirrel.











Doesn't she look like she has a secret about me?









Bronwen must really be made of sugar and spice and everything nice because the mosquitoes have been merciless. She woke up Monday morning with bites all over her little face.








Noah plays with Grandma Martha's magnifying glass. My what big eyes you have!







So glamorous! Move over Mae.








Watch out for those sharks in the bathtub.






I've been unable to write lately. Mostly because by the time the kids are in bed, I'm too exhausted to put two sentences together verbally, much less write them. Tonight the computer is free and I have a lot to catch up on, so I thought I would try. So please forgive any sentence fragments, runn-ons, misspellings, grammar infractions etc. I hope you enjoy the pictures of some of the moments of our weeks .

I always have fragments, run-ons etc so no worries.
Hope you get some extra rest sometime soon

I will pray for God to give you rest for your weary mind and body in the evenings. The days can indeed become exhausting and the nights of sleep too short.

*Warning: Motherly advice may be approaching. Procede with caution!*

Take some time for yourself this weekend while the kids are napping or watching a movie (the bigger kids) and drink a cup of tea and allow yourself to truly relax, even if it's only for a half hour. I don't want you to get sick!

Ps 23:2.3 "He lets me rest in green meadows; he leads me beside peaceful streams. He renews my strength." (NLT)

I need to allow the Lord to let me rest in green meadows so that he can renew my strength, too.

You did a great job of catching up on pieces of your days. As always, I love all the photos. I pray that you sleep deep and long tonight. (That goes for the sweet kiddos too.) love you.
