I took my boys to the Bellevue Botannical Gardens which are beautiful and free. My boys loved the waterfalls and running around.
I've also been doing a lot of reflecting this week. I have a friend going through a difficult time right now. The little girl that I
CASA for is going through another transition and my heart is breaking for her as well. I think we are so blessed as Heavenly Father's children and yet there are many trials and learning experiences that test our faith. I know that we are here solely by grace. Everything we have/are comes from Him. Even though it's hard to understand the "why" of situations, we can turn to our loving Father. Sometimes, I just want to be able to speed through trials to the blessings. I want my friend to see the blessings that will come after she is strengthened during this difficult time. I want to take away her hurt. It's times like these where I am ESPECIALLY grateful for Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ because I know that there is a reason for all, even if I don't understand the reasons.
I am just thankful for these two blessings and try my hardest daily to be thankful for what I have been blessed with and remember the blessings through the trials.
Don't I have such silly boys to make me smile all the time?
Oh and don't worry, that's PERMANENT marker, not blood. ; )
