All Mom's need a break

Yesterday, as my 3 year old woke up with barely a voice and little Thatcher having a double ear infection...my husband stayd home with all 4 boys. I headed off to church...AWESOME sermon!!! and then our "oh so dreaded Dave Ramsey class" ( this will be good for us, I keep encouraging myself) I praised God, like it was only him and I in the room and felt so connected...I learned alot in Dave Ramsey's class...although I was looking forward to My husband and I having a date that evening (I felt Dave Ramsey saying NO) SAVE SAVE SAVE!!!  UGH>>>>It's like he is stuck in my head with every dollar planned to be spent! So we cancelled our date and SAVED!! I came home to have lunch, and then went out to see my brother in law's new home, popped back in to give the kid's a bath and then left again to go cut hair. A friend made my family dinner in exchange for me cutting her daughter's hair (THE WOMAN CAN COOK). So, my point is...I LOVE my babies, I spend every moment with them but yesterday I had a break and it felt nice to regain patience and my momminess. God Bless my husband because I think he felt my everyday stresses yesterday as he held down the home and cared for all children. But it was days like yesterday when I get a much needed break and that I look at him and LOVE him more for giving me this break. EVERY mom needs a day to herself...you need to regroup, remember who you are, and give yourself Grace for all you do...Because being a mom is a hard job but it is definately the GREATEST Gift we will ever recieve. And we all need a break in relationships to make them stronger even with our children!
