Naptime….

This post contains affiliate links to products mentioned. For more information, read my disclosure policy.

Some days, naptime at our house is a picture of peace.  Quiet babies, all sleeping and a mom sipping coffee and catching up on blogs or books or dishes.

Not this week.

This week, it’s been a bit more like a relay race, and the kids just keep passing the baton.  One up, one down…all day.

Between a toddler who’s testing and a set of twins who are teething…this mama is tired.

There are emails to answer, events to plan, and laundry to fold.  But you know what?

There always will be.

So, I sit.  I sit and let some simple truths sink in.

  • I don’t have to do it all.  There are some things that can wait and others that I should just cross off the list and let someone else do.  (You know those things, right?  Those things you’re afraid to say “no” to doing.)
  • My kids can help.  And, I have to take time to let them.
  • The big things…the ones I simply cannot do….those are the things God can.  And, I have to believe that he will.

So, I sit.  And remember his words:

“Be still and know that I am God.  I will be exalted among the nations.  I will be exalted in all the earth.”

And I pray that today he will be exalted in me.
