We had a great afternoon at Mamaw Efird's after church. It was nice and laid back and the men (well, Mark!) did all the cooking. I enjoyed getting to visit with my family and cousins without having to rush to do something or be somewhere. Sometimes I think we run around so much and forget what's most important - family!
Proverbs 14:1 (NCV)
“A wise woman strengthens her family, but a foolish woman destroys hers by what
she does.”
This verse reminds me that I need to be more intentionally focused on my family and just being there for them. My kids need my time and attention. Although I can't stand to think about it, there will probably come a day when my kids will not want to just snuggle or cuddle with me....so I never want to take any of those moments for granted!
The kids and I decided to go to Magic Springs for a few hours later that day. It was great to stroll hand in hand with both kiddos just enjoying a leisurely afternoon of play.
So thankful for my two kiddos! I'm also extremely thankful for my own mother (and I can't believe I have no picture of us together!) for everything she's done for me. I'm a grown adult and she still sacrifices for me. I'm pretty exhausting to be around at times (according to her and Mark) so I appreciate her loving me even when it's hard to!
