God grabs our attention


Morgan has pneumonia.

This weekend was going to be super busy…Friday night was to be a girls night, Saturday morning running/walking a 5k, Sunday pastries in the parking lot which I helped organize, this is the weekend where what Matt does at church comes to life …the launch of Monvee and handing out the packs to a congregation off 1000 + ish  AND Growth Group sign ups for groups starting next week!. (seems like a simple task…not so much!) So I will be helping him out and a impromptu pastors wives gathering Sunday afternoon plus all the normal stuff that didn’t happen during the week, sweep, vacuum, disinfect our house from the colds etc. laundry…you know the list. 

God sure grabs our attention when we have to much going on and don’t focus on him and our family ..when we get stressed and to busy …he lets us know, in a way I DO NOT like.

This is the second time this has happened. We tried to go visit Matt’s dad and grandparents over Memorial day.
 
Morgan ended up sick.  it was the start of pneumonia.....

The trip was not the stressing point, it was everything around it and God new we just needed a weekend at home we didn’t tell anyone we were home so we slept in and relaxed and truly enjoyed being a family, we didn't even go to church because we had planned to be gone.

So our weekend plans now included, kind of watched hitched while we played with Morgan, a wonderful budget meeting (yes I used the words together..when we do this together God provides!) Time for me to clear my inbox and sort out the calendars (down to  4 and doing pretty good!!)  I am going to make up some hours Saturday since I spent the afternoon home with Morgan, a nap, sometime in the hammock and of course snuggling time with Morgan. Sunday will still be a little hetic but thankfully we have wonderful friends and family who are going to come and watch Morgan while we go to church and maybe the pastors wives thingy.

I realized this tonight as a felt a sense of relief and needed to write it while it was on my mind. 



hopefully i will have a chance to post some pictures this weekend...unless i decide to hang out in the hammock a while longer :)
