In the middle of this crazy mess I remember I am blessed

Today just happens to be one of those days where I seriously question my mothering.

The day started with me oversleeping and three precious children on the couch snacking on cheez-its. Sweet at first minus the fact that Boo desperately needed a diaper change which left a pee stained couch. Ok I can handle that, O just wanted to be little momma and take care of her in the morning. 

And then the clingy-ness. Oh man. Boo is getting her two year old molars {I figured from what this week has been like with her, confirmed this afternoon when I took the risky move of putting my finger in to check..ouch by the way!} and she is super dee duper clingy. Making toast for A & O ended up being the most tragic thing I could do to Boo. 

I begged

To come over so her boy could distract Boo so I could finally have a cup of coffee, instead she did the holding and I was finally able to have a quick bowl of cereal and some MUCH NEEDED coffee.

And the A & O were refusing to clean their rooms. And bickering. And just plain out driving me insane.

Then there's the poop I had to clean. What poop?

.......Walked in to the room to get Boo up from her nap and she was a nakey baby. Poop diaper off and all over the place.

Then cleaning the kids bathroom...seriously why in the world is there tooth paste in the door jam & pink sand all over the floor.

Let's just say I was starting to feel like I just might explode. 

But then the gentle reminder. I am blessed. I have a little that is teething who just wants snuggles from her momma, twins which in itself is a beautiful blessing, a husband who is crazy in love with me, a home to clean, food to eat, toothpaste so my children can with some effort brush their teeth...I could go on and on.

While some days I feel like it's all too much I am thankful for this chaotic life that leaves me begging for more of Jesus and His strength.
