Trey is out of town for Breakthru so the kids and I have been doing our very best to stay busy around the house. Yesterday we played with our neighbors outside and never took off our pjs. It was a good day!
But today tested my patience. It has been rainy for 24 hours and we are all going a little stir crazy. Anna Joy is cutting some teeth, which made nap time nonexistent. Around 2:30 this afternoon after fighting naps for over an hour, I remembered my Starbucks gift card in my wallet and loaded the kids up for a much need caffeine break. As I was turning to go into our neighborhood on our way home, I looked back to see both kids had passed smooth out. So I kept driving. I hopped on the HWY and almost drive to Alabama. Anything to get the kids to sleep, right?

January will be tough since Trey will be taking a J-term class that will require him to be gone every weekend during the month except for the first, which will be full of celebrating Anna Joy's 2nd birthday.
It's a crazy busy season in our lives, and seems to only get busier, but I'm so thankful for where we are.
It's still raining, but I'm praying for sun. Tomorrow is a new day with new parenting graces and hopefully more laughs (and naps) than today.
Grace upon grace upon grace.

| Jones has started taking pictures with my phone and asked to take a picture of me and Anna Joy tonight. It speaks volumes. You can see the exhaustion in both of us. I kinda love it. Motherhood is real, y'all. |
