One of those days

It's one of those days. You know the one that you wish you could just go back to bed and start over in 24 hours? That's it.

Today is Tuesday which means it's Bible Study Fellowship day. I should be there right now discussing with about 10 ladies the homework from last week. Instead, I'm just sitting here trying to hold it together because I am an emotional mess.

The day started off by me getting up a little late, no  big deal - happens often to me. Elias just couldn't pull himself together today. At first I thought he was sick, but no, he's just a mess today. I told him he couldn't use my deoderant and it was the end of the world. He started crying, and continued crying for the next hour and a half over every little thing.

Breakfast wasn't good enough, he didn't want his hair combed, he didn't want to wear the jeans I picked out for him, and on it goes. Everything was a melt down.

I know I'm supposed to be the mature one in these situations, but I really just wanted to sit on the floor and cry with him. I'm too tired, stressed, and emotional to deal with his breakdowns today.

Up my hands went in the defeated stance, and it was decided we'd stay home instead of going to my much needed Bible study.

Now, I'm looking at my boys and they are playing guitar and singing "Jesus loves me" at the top of their lungs. I'm so thankful that Elias has pulled himself together. Now, if only I could do the same and go on with the day....Here I go.

Gonna be a good day even though it started off rough!
