Just breathe

It is taking every ounce of strength I have but for now, I will just breathe.

To say this year has been one of the most difficult ones yet would be an understatement. I feel as though we have been thrown under the bus only to have it stop directly on top of us...and park! Our marriage continues to be tested, our lives continue to change and our stress continues to build.

This year we celebrated our 13th wedding anniversary. I have never been superstitious about the unlucky number 13...until now.

For now, I will focus on the one thing that can't be taken from us. At least, can't be taken the way everything else in our lives has been the past six months.

Tonight, I will focus on my incredibly loving, hard-working, strong husband, our five precious young children and the fact that the Lord will continue to hold us in the palm of his hand as we wait for His plan to unfold.

Tonight, tomorrow and for the stressful days that lie ahead, I will just breathe.

I know that I don't know everything you are going through but I am sure you are way beyond stressed. I can't imagine what that does to a marriage. I know that just one kid seems to change things - let alone five. Tight times make for short tempers. I will pray for you guys - I hope everything will turn out okay. Trust in God - he has a plan!
