Fasting

I cannot believe I am saying this, but I am grateful that I am fasting.

I am having my period, and it makes me moody--mostly weepy and failure-thoughted.

So I am grateful to drown my woes in the scriptures tonight. And prayer. And tears.

I hope I can be a better mom. My kids make me so mad sometimes that it kind of scares me.

I know you can relate.

But I don't want to hate my kids. I want to LOVE being a mom.

I'm just not there yet.

I am so glad it is just you and me here. I feel like I can say what I am REALLY feeling, and I know you won't judge me for it.

Thank you.
