lounging

Because Nathan didn't have to go into work until the afternoon, we were able to have a little bit of an easier relaxing morning (mind you, we still have 3 kids in the house that wake up ready to go) rather than the rush it usually becomes. This morning, Nathan treated me to a really nice and much needed and welcomed backrub. As I was lying on the couch enjoying this rare treat for a few minutes, Daddy just had to jokingly comment, "What's Mom doing today, Ivy, lounging?" Ivy then remarked, "Yeah, while all of her kids are hungry." There's no rest for the weary in this house...or at least just for Mommy.

Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light. ~Matthew 11:28-30
