Irony should be....

my new middle name! Hello Lovelies! After a brief post of how much I love my husband and all the wonderful things he did for me this week I shortly find myself with my foot in my mouth.


Talk about irony, isn't it amazing how one day with just one kiss or hug we can fall in love with them all over again and in an instant be flaming tea kettle hot with our husbands? Love is indeed a four letter word but is not the easiest of words to actually live by in my marriage. Sometimes laughing is necessary to keep from crying.

All in all he truly is awesome but I just can't wrap my mind around how I can love him so much and want to commit murder - and in the church no less - LOL! Thank goodness that God is a God of forgiveness and He gives me grace when I feel like I can't take it anymore. Anybody out there know what I'm talking about? Even if you don't reply I KNOW I'm not alone. Nothing like being able to identify with someone goin through the same as you.

Anyhoo, besides the hubs driving me nuts I need help with my lil' peanut. I think that when he leaves for work he puts something in her juice cup so she can act up just a little bit more - no just kidding- It seems like everyone is out to get you when you are going back and forth with your hubby! Like I was saying, this girl is just ........ I DON"T KNOW! She is acting a fool around here lately. Everything is a fight, to brush her teeth, to eat dinner, to go potty (pray for me with the potty escapades), to take a nap, to brush her hair, to get dressed, to get undressed - sorry just venting here, to watch T.V., to go in the car, clean up her toys, to walk instead of being carried and on and on.

Did someone put a hit out on me or sumthin' cause I feel like the world is out to get me?!!! Including my household. Nuff said! I am declaring war on that which is trying to take me down and I will not be moved. I'll let you know if any casualties happen to take place around here - even if it means I have to die to self.

*Then Jesus said to his disciples, "If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. - Matthew 16:24

Speaking of self, What have you done for you lately?

- Just a thought.....

LOL - yes we all feel this way from time to time. Other people with their own opinions can be really annoying. :)

Good luck with your war - take no prisoners!

I hear ya! How old is your little peanut? She's adorable! My son is 2.5 and we're going through, "I wanna do it all by myself." Needless to say, I let him wear pajamas he's picked out on a hot summer day, because, well, it's easier than a fight and goodness knows there are plenty of opportunities for fights. ;) I caught your blog from Christian Mom Bloggers, BTW! -Erin :)

Ahh girl I can relate.

To avoid foot in mouth sometimes you gotta close mouth but it'll be alright soon.

Oh and by the way my little Mamatoosi - she is 2.5 also1 I guess that's the age they need to assert themselves. Glad I'm not alone though ;)
