This week has been a rough one. It started with Elisa getting sick, then Jonathan. We had two nights that Jonathan cried and needed to be held most of the night (it's so sad to see your small baby who hardly ever cries be inconsolable). Then I got sick. Then Greg left for the weekend. We were all feeling a lot better by the time Greg left (thankfully). But we're still not totally better, so we couldn't go to church this morning. Elisa is still contagious and can't be in the nursery. This also meant that while Greg was gone this weekend we couldn't spend time with anyone who has kids... so we've been pretty isolated.
I've been in a pretty okay mood about all of this... but this morning I feel really discouraged and down.
This morning God impressed this verse on my heart:
"Come to me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light." Matthew 11:28-30
