Taking a break

When God asks you to do something it usually starts gently. You hear it or maybe feel it. But when you refuse to do what He asks of you, He doesn't just say "ok, you're probably right, nevermind, I'll find something else for you"
Nope. He asks again. And again. And again. And again. And again.

With that I have no fancy words, but I'll be stepping back from social media.
When things get hard, I get lost in it, instead of God. 
Which it doesn't fill me but drains me & makes it harder to be the best wife, mother....and everything else needed to be.
So I'm taking a break for 40 days from facebook & twitter & instagram.

I may still blog, but I might not. I don't know.
But stepping away is necessary for right now.

I'm truly not a Windau (my maiden name) when it comes to my alcohol consumption. I put my catholic roots to shame. I'm ok with that. I'm not a mean drunk, but a purely giggly & say inappropriate thing drunk. Today stung. It stung hard. Last Tuesday we got a call for a little 5 month old baby. Technically we got a call for 4 boys but for reasons that I will not share, we could only say yes to little guy. And then there was waiting. And more waiting because our agency couldn't find a home for 4 of the little guys, they came from a sibling group of 6. All 6. Boys. That would be headed for permanent custody. In my mind all the things lined up. I had prayed for an orphan. I had been learning about how to bond with a baby in the adoption sens...
