Hearts for Home – June 15th

My goals for this week:

1) Get everyone’s routine back on track. In the last 24 hours life kind of went haywire and now I’m trying to figure it all out.
2) Not use the Internet as “filler” when E-bears is napping.
3) Find various ways to help Elise with her separation anxiety. Just when I think it can’t possibly get any worse, it does by like 1000%.
4) Go to bed early and get up early to help get more sleep + time alone (in that ‘wake up before Elise does’ way).

What is Hearts for Home? Gae sums it up nicely:

In today’s busy and aggressive society mothers at home are not given much encouragement to be committed to their role in being home.

In my weekly ‘Hearts for Home’ post I am encouraging myself and others to commit to thinking about what 4-6 things we can do each week to bring our thoughts, prayers and actions to keeping our ‘Hearts for Home’.

I am praying that a spirit of gentleness, generosity in thoughts and time along with loveliness and grace would lead us to be all that God wants us to be.

I pray also that each person involved in ‘Hearts for Home’ would also pray for any others involved as well.

  • Yesterday I mentioned that everyone’s routine got messed up. Poor Elise has been getting rocked by solid foods (in a not good way), resulting in us giving her a LOT of prune juice. Greg was having issues with his shunt hurting him and could only work half

    Organisation of routine is so eay to muck up and so hard to reinstate. Good luck with the list.
    God Bless :-)
