...just trying to not be so distracted and focus on the things that matter... God and his desire for me, time spent with my husband not being distracted and to focus on my children and their joy, growth, abilities, I want to be with people and make them feel like they matter... shop with a list and focus on it... make a present and finish it... sell our condo and know that it is God working and not us... I am off to do a quick scrapbook page about my word... lata
