Here I am with Josh. Lately, Josh has been trying my patience. And I am finding out that I have anger issues. I always thought I was pretty good about not getting mad (except for maybe when I am getting too competitive in a game), but having a little boy has made me rethink this! It's amazing how much love and how much frustration I can have in my heart at one time for him! I am trying to learn to show him the mercy tha tGod has shown me. I need to learn to have the wisdom to discern when he is just being curious or clumsy and when he is blatantly disobeying. It's such a fine line sometimes. He is precious! I just want to be the best mom I can be for him.

Josh's birthday is on Friday. He's going to be 3! I can hardly believe it! Only 15 more years before he will be leaving to go to school! I know that seems like a long time away but as fast as the last 3 years have gone, I know that the next 15 will go too fast.

I read today in Psalms that God is able to make the barren woman a keeper of the home and a joyful mother of children. My prayer today is that I will be that JOYFUL mother!
