As I sit here, drinking my cup of peppermint tea (my favorite), I ponder what I accomplished today.
My house is still a mess. My laundry still undone.
Then I'm reminded of my day. It didn't go to waste, I didn't procrastinate the day away. I spent time with God, schooled my children, made 3 meals, took lunch to my husband, cleaned a kitchen, made a Walmart run, returned library books and picked up a new bunch, paid the bills, started my menu, got the AWANA cars cut (with the help of a friend), spoke with a new homeschooling mom with lots of questions, cleaned out the car (which was so in need, I made my hubby haul us around in the truck this weekend) and am currently writing my first blog entry.
As I read Sally Clarkson's book, "Mission of Motherhood" I came across this:
Proverbs 31 woman's activities all revolve around her home.
The preparation of food (vs.14)
Clothing (vs.13,21)
Ministering to others (vs.17-20)
Teaching her children & others (vs.26)
Spiritual life (vs.30)
business (vs.16)
future and well being (vs.25)
productivity (vs.27)
meeting her husbands needs (vs.11)
At second glance, it looks like it was a successful day.
