Mornings

I am not a morning person....meaning, I do not like chaos or interacting with people as soon as I wake up.  Most days I try to get up before my children, even if it is just a few minutes.  Getting up before them allows me to greet them with a sleepy smile.  

But for not being a morning person, mornings are my favorite at our house.  Most days, they are pretty peaceful.  Since everyone had a good nights rest, the girls will play for a bit to let me finish my coffee (that I now drink thanks to Campbell).  We fix breakfast, get our morning chores done and start on school.

There are so many days that end with me thankful for bedtime.  I am tired physically, mentally, emotionally.  But every morning is a new day....the stuff that got to me the day before just doesn't matter.  

The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; His mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. Lamentations 3:22-23
