Someday this phrase will be my motto, but for now it is simply a reminder that I haven't gotten there yet.Abigail Gronwayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07397799031640621551noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7955556559266514067.post-90182122782652640662017-07-18T01:35:50.754-05:002017-07-18T01:35:50.754-05:00Reading this, I'm sitting here smiling. I so ...Reading this, I'm sitting here smiling. I so recognize myself in you!! My way is always the easiest and best (only) way to do _________! Yep, definitely frustrating (aggravating, and I used to think they did it on purpose) when others don't do what I think needs to be done, when I think it needs to be done and how I think it needs to be done! Especially when we were trying to do something or go somewhere when all 3 of our daughters were little. I have finally decided that if I wanted everything done my way and on my timeline, I had to do it myself and if someone else was helping out, I had to let them do it their way. Since I'm lazy, I have been working for years on shutting up and letting things roll...sometimes I need to go for a walk or out to the barn to scream at the birds in there when I really want to wrest control from someone else. With God, He has shown me over and over, that if I wait on His timing, it is always perfect and everything falls into place so easily. It's so hard when you are a planner and you live with a go-with-the-flow guy, especially when the pregnancy hormones are raging! I'm praying you come to peace with it much younger then I did!
