eggstravaganza.

the last few weeks have been nothing less than a whirlwind.

every single time i think i'm finally getting 'it' together, i'm not. 

but then i think - who really has it together? anyone? anyone?

like i've said before - i'm in a rut. a big one. as in - the longest one i can remember. 

don't get me wrong. it's all my doing. at first, it started with being tired with a newborn. understandably, for sure! but then, that became an excuse. an excuse to not get things done.  an excuse to be irritable. or lazy. or 'blue'. 

and now - it's gone on for so long - that my heart is hard. and that is. not. good.

but the positive thing is - that i know i'm in it. i'm acknowledging it. and i'm deciding to push forward.

i know what i need to do. i know the steps i need to take. but somehow, for some reason, i have not been able to put one foot in front of the other to take the first step.

but today. i did.

i went for a jog/walk. 

i spent some much needed time with the lord.

i got some laundry done.


 i have lots and lots of thoughts on this topic. but i must get them all sorted out before i even begin to elaborate.  for now - my prayer is that i would find some consistency in my own life. that i would carve out some time to take care of my relationship with my Lord first - and in doing so, that i would allow HIM to pour into me so that i could pour out to others. 

how can i expect to pour out - or keep going at this rate - if i'm not giving HIM a chance to pour in??? 

yeah. that's what i thought. it's impossible

anyway - like i said - more thoughts later.

for now - fun stuff!!!

saturday, prestonwood had an easter eggstravaganza. 

j. was out of town. {more on that later....}

so i flew solo for the day. with both littles.

luckily - joanna was in the same boat. so we tag-teamed it!








i must say that i was slightly concerned surprised about the number of pink eggs that ended up in b's basket.

but looking at this picture - i only see pink eggs! :)










although i know that easter is about waaaay more than eggs and bunnies, it is fun to hunt for eggs. and see b's sweet little serious face while doing so!
