I don't know how busy your life's have been but ours have been crazy.
Our family is going though lots of changes.
Some good, and some are just making life different.
This causes lots of stress, and for Brianna to have melt downs.
She had been doing so well with learning to control it recently,
but with many things changing the slightest thing seems to set her off.
This makes life interesting!
With all of the special needs of Nathaniel, and focusing on him,
I sometimes forget that Brianna has a few slight issues too.
I know Nathaniel has an amazing mom, and it is not my place to raise him,
but I have a habit of placing his needs ahead of my kids.
This is all me and my fault.
In the back of my mind I justify it like this...
The girls are older
I will just help for a little while then I will help the girls.
He has to have XYZ
If I don't help, who will?
None of this is good. It is all my doing. Truth be known I love to help.
I just don't always know when It is too much for me or the girls.
So now we are in a place where home is in chaos, routines gone and I have no idea what our day will look in a short while.
This all causes melt downs in our world.
So I am trying to teach Bri my technique on how to avoid being overwhelmed,
I will share it with you.
The other day we actually made it home before dark
and look what we found going up the street to my house?
I love nature and often feel like the lord has provided us with wonderful tools to take our troubles to him.
For me I feel him when I am breathing in and out with the waves, watching the deer bounce away, feeling the wind on my face while swinging, watching a butterfly fly away....
These all take away my troubles and let me see HIM.
How do you see HIM?
