I saw this quote tonight, and it really hit home today. Today has been tough. Heck, lets be honest, the last month has been really tough. Tyrell has been working a lot, and I am so grateful he is willing to sacrifice so much so that our family can thrive, but it comes with a price for everyone involved. Today, I woke up determined to have a "better" day and soon after got a text message that jolted my entire mood and day. I remember thinking that maybe my kids just needed my attention and for me to be able to just forget the problem I was facing. In an effort to try to get rid of the problem as quick as I can I emerged myself in personal records and online searches. My poor kids were holy terrors and I just kept wishing they'd give me 5 min. to deal with the situation I felt needed my attention right then. I wanted to post this here so that I can remember it. I should have let the problem go until later tonight, and played with my kids. In the end maybe some of the days stresses and messes could have been avoided, and they would have felt like the most important part of my day (as they should).
