Today is one of those days where I'm having a hard time coming up with something specific. It's not that I am ungrateful today, I'm just...tired. And when I'm tired I have a hard time being aware and alert to life around me.
Earlier today I organized our calendar for the month of September. I think it might have been the final nail in the coffin of tired. We are B.U.S.Y. in September! Wow. But I look at it all and I can see where there are opportunities for relationship building, community building, life lessons in perseverance, furthering developing gifts the redheads have, etc and so while I am exhausted looking at it I am grateful for what is to come in the month of September. I am grateful that we have a life outside our four walls and that life is full of moments and memories with people. Maybe I'm putting too much stock in the filled days to come this month but maybe I'm also willing to have the eyes of my heart and mind wide open so as to not miss what moments and memories I'm supposed to take in. So yes, I'm grateful for a full and busy month ahead.
(Someone please remind me of this when I get whiny by the end of this week! Gracias! *wink*)
