Mean Momma!

Oh the joys of motherhood.  Some days your kids absolutely love you, and other days their love is not as visible! 

This morning, Luke and I were having quite a disagreement.  He decided he did not need to eat his grape flavored Flinstone vitamin with his breakfast, while I was quite insistent that he must eat it.  About the time I finally convinced him to get it in his mouth, Jonathan was headed out the door for work.  As he was walking out the door, Luke looked at me and said "Mommy, work?" 

In his great frustration with me, he really wanted to send me out the door this morning.  I reminded him that Mommy's work was at home with her boys, but this morning I really think he would have prefered that this was not the case. 

Sweet boys, God has called me to a few very important jobs.  First and foremost, to be a disciple of Christ.  Second, to serve along side your Daddy as his helpmate.  Third, I get to be your Mom.  This means there are days you're not going to like me, but know that my goal (even in eating the vitamin you don't think you need) is that your heart would be softened to love Jesus with all your all. 

Here's a picture of a much "happier" breakfast!
