Growing Pains

I have had a particularily bad day today....sometimes it is so hard to be an adult; to set boundaries; to love. I always find comfort in these words:

Always be full of joy in the Lord. I say it again—rejoice! Let everyone see that you are considerate in all you do. Remember, the Lord is coming soon. Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus. And now, dear brothers and sisters, one final thing. Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable. Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise. (Philippians 4:4-8)

Who are you talking about?

I have come to realize that I frequently refer to myself in third person when I am talking to Kajsa. I will say things like "Mamma needs to get you dressed, and then she has to do some laundry." Why do I do this? I don't talk to anyone else like that, and I'm sure that one day she is going to start thinking to herself "Who is this Mamma you're always talking about?"

On a different note....is there anything more precious or heart warming than feeding your baby and having them stop eating only to look up at you and smile? Life is good!
