be prepared for bad days

I think it all starts in my own heart but it seems that if I dread the start of a school day it is bound to be a bad one. To be honest it isn't the work, or the children, it is me. I wrote out the plan on Friday night relaxed on Sunday as planned but just didn't want to go back into the school week on Monday. And of course right on cue my kindergartner has no interest in learning, my toddler wants to plant get face right in front of everything my kindergartner needs to see, and the baby wants to take a nap. .. No not a nap; a snuggle together and nurse non stop nap. We take a break before we have even really begun. This is how the day will continue if I don't protect my heart from anger about how poorly we started. I write this to let you know that there are bad days, but the are also really good ones, don't lose heart. Stay strong, hold your tongue if need be, and remember to do all that you do to the glory of God, remembering to praise him in everything.
