confession:
i am not a morning person.
not one bit.
it doesn’t matter if i have gotten
3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 or 9
hours of sleep,
if i get out of bed before 7:14
(just ask B)
i’m a
cranky,
grouchy,
groggy,
impatient
mess.
it’s awful.
every night i vow to have a better attitude
or promise to not plead with B
the moment i hear little people stirring
to let me sleep a little while longer
and every morning
(nearly every morning)
i fail.
it’s because i suck and i am sinful
but it doesn’t meant that it always must be this way.
i must change and grow and sacrifice.
and when i do,
the Lord surely blesses me.
like with moments like this
(which i captured only by rising early).
those unexpected moments
are the ones that leave me breathless
and make my heart go all pitter-patter.
and be sure to check out Allison’s
beautifully transparent blog post.
picture me {im}perfectly
is a weekly project to reveal that we don’t have it all together.
i will post a
picture me {im}perfectly
blog post every wednesday
where you will be able to link up to your blog
revealing that:
you are not picture perfect,
your kids are not picture perfect,
your house is not picture perfect,
your crafts are not always picture perfect,
let’s
encourage,
inspire and
remind
other women
that none of us have it all together.
and link up to your direct posting
and feel encouraged.
