I was exhausted yesterday...like, com.plete.ly exhausted. I had to force myself out of bed...and I was fighting to keep my eyes open by 3pm. I ended up taking a nap for about an hour. And, the only thing I could think of was, "Wouldn't it be nice if I was pregnant so I would have a reason for being so tired?"
Of course, that is not the case.
But, it still would have been nice to be able to use that as an excuse.
Then, there was last night.
I couldn't fall asleep. I was trying so hard...but I probably didn't fall asleep until about 3am...and continued tossing and turning the rest of the night.
You'd think I'd be exhausted today.
But no...of course not. It's after midnight and I'm still wide awake.
Some days, I'd really like to use pregnancy as the reason for abnormal things.
Such is life...
Some days, I'd also really like to be superwoman.
I want to be the type of woman that actually enjoys cooking dinner for her husband...because I don't enjoy it. Thank goodness he likes to cook!
Some days, I'd also like to have a laundry folding fairy.
(Come on, you know you want one, too)
But, most of all, some days, I'd like to wake up, eager to spend some time in the Word.
Scratch that...
I'd like that to be my desire every morning.
Then Jesus declared, "I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never go hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty."
(John 6:35, NIV)
This is what I want to long for each day...

AMEN sister!
I love your heart oh beautiful wife of mine.
I think that longing to long comes straight from God. I'm with you on that for sure!
And I would pay soo much for a laundry fairy!!! Or a dirty dishes fairy. Or a pay-the-electric-bill fairy. They have those, right?
Amen to that! All of that! The laundry fairy part, especially! ;0)
