Life's Path



I am grateful today for all the twists and turns that have made up my life. None of the things I have or am doing today were in my "plan", but of course I am learning it's not really my plan that is going to be my life. My hubby tells me often, "If you want to hear the sound of God's laughter tell him your plans."

I am grateful that the university I first attended was not a good fit for me because it lead me to find my very best friend who is now my hubby! I am grateful we were blessed with three amazing kids we didn't plan for, they still like to sneak up on us! I am grateful that my career in medicine was rerouted to a career in education. Being a mom has helped me to be a better teacher and vice versa!

It amazes me every day how well the trials in my life have turned out! I have just known things would be okay, even if I did panic a little (okay, well a lot sometimes!). I guess my faithfulness that I will not be given more than I can handle has gotten me through. Although, sometimes I wish He didn't think I could handle so much! (hehehe)

I guess I am just in a reflective mood today! Things are good and I am so grateful for the messes and the busy times and even the noise (but I have to admit we talk about noise canceling headphones a lot around here). Life is what you make of it and I'm trying everyday to train myself to make the most of every moment!

Have a great Gratiuesday and visit Laura's to see what everyone else is grateful for today!

Until next time,
