Keep Movin Forward
Have you ever had one of those days where (despite all you have been taught your whole life) you wonder what your purpose is and why life has to be so hard. And sometimes you wonder if you really can make it, because sometimes it just doesn't seem worth it. I hate getting stuck in the "victim" mode and that I let myself fall into these pits where I feel helpless, and hopeless. You would think having the gospel of Christ in my life I would be able to avoid this. Mike has gone to help his dad work for awhile in American Falls so tonight I have had some time to reflect, and collect myself back together, and break up my little pity party. Even when I am feeling this I know I can do better, and quitting is not worth it. So I wonder why I feel like this when I know I shouldn't. My quote lately is from the movie Meet the Robinsons, "Keep Movin Forward." That has been my motto for the past...six months or so. When I finally get a grip, and stop playing the "wo is me card" it does strengthen my resolve to be a better person, stand a little taller (if that's possible, haha) and remember that Christ hasn't moved, I have and He is just waiting for me to come back to His open arms. Okay I am ready to step off my soap box now. Now I just need some dark chocolate and a good chic flic...

You are going to make it!!!
oh, I wish I were there to eat chocolate with you and I have some great movies!! Becca, we admire you for how you deal with stress. you are always cheerful and unstoppable, but remember-friends can help too! so there is my soapbox! call when you are down!
Can you tell Chad? I think he thinks I'm the only women to have those moments. I think it's called the effects of sleep deprivation and the extreme burning of ATP (the energy currency of the cell) from chasing around/holding kids all day. It's normal. At least, I'm on the same boat some days. Does that make you feel better?
It's good to know that you're not superwoman...it's not easy to have 3 children on your own! you are such an unbelievable example to so many, so you can be on your soap box anytime!!!
