BALANCE……
This has been my area of improvement for a long time. Juggling the many hats I wear is a challenge. But I can say that when I took control of my clock and calendar, and became more intentional about what balance meant for me, I began to see results.
I’ve been wanting to make sure that I produced a blog every Monday. But for the longest I hesitated because I wasn’t sure I’d have something to write about every Monday. After some wise counsel from my pastor who reminded me that if I set some time aside to ask God what He wanted me to write about, He will give it to me.
So I created a note section on my phone entitled ‘blog’ and I asked 😉 Well, He started giving me titles and stories and now it’s up to me to be consistent…..
Anyways, back to the balance thing. We are fresh back from family vacation/spring break and it was so relaxing 🙂
I lurked for the sun every morning, slept with the balcony door open to hear the waves, enjoyed our away time and especially enjoyed watching my water babies have fun…
I have always loved the morning. Maybe because of it’s clean undisturbed freshness or the hint of promise everyday brings, I don’t know, but I love it!
Most of my mornings were also spent trying not to share my writing materials with this little early bird 🙂
My daughter has always been a water lover and now her brother has followed suit. So it was a pleasure to watch them…
We had a refreshing time and baby boy and I took in a few more sights as baby girl and dad went off to see Batman vs Superman…
Had a great time and am looking forward to the next. I do believe baby Jason had the most fun time of all 🙂

Wonderful photos! That last one of your son is adorable. I think your pastor’s answer to your blog post topics is the key to all things — What is it that God wants me to write, say, do or not do today? Thanks for sharing this reminder.

Thanks Ms. Darla!! I don’t think we check in with Him often enough (especially with pen and paper) 😉
