Where have all the pictures gone?

I have some pictures ready to post and will be posting them soon.  I have missed blogging and I can imagine you miss the pictures and regular posts.

I have been covering for a fellow SLP while she is out on maternity leave.  I have been so incredibly busy it hasn't even been funny.  I typically get home after 6 PM we eat dinner and put Celeste to bed by 7 PM.  I only get to spend a few minutes with my kids during the week.  I also have been working weekends at the hospital.  It has been insane!  I hate it, and I only have 7 more days to work and then I am done!

It has been hard, but worth it.  I make really good money when I work and we have needed a little extra money. Especially, since we had to replace our new fridge in July and then just last weekend our washer went out.  I am very grateful to have the extra money.  It has been a true blessing.  

I have also been very grateful because every. single. day. I witness small tender mercies from my Heavenly Father.  A couple of times my mornings have been super crazy and I get a call saying my first appointment is cancelled.  I then have an extra half hour to get out the door.  I have had appointments at the end of the day cancel countless times so I can get home a little earlier and spend a few extra minutes with my children.  My baby, who normally doesn't love to cuddle, was really cuddly one night when I put her to bed.  I needed to hold her and have her close to me.  I miss her so much during the day.  

I even forgot messed up my schedule one day and to make a long story short I was able to go back home for two hours and clean my house.  I really needed the alone time that day.  I was going crazy in my dirty house and it felt so good to vacuum, mop, and scrub my bathrooms.  

Let me tell you Heavenly Father knows me and knows what I can handle.  He has helped me get through this crazy few weeks and without Him there is no way I could have done it.
