Snow Days ... and Random Acts of Kindness

One thing God does for me when Ryan leaves is teaches me that sometimes we have to ask for help. It is just so difficult for me. I always try to be strong...I can do it myself... Well, I know that we should be humble, and able to ask for help. So, I have been, and I am so thankful for great friends who are there when you need them.

(Why is it that last year there were NO snow days, but then, Ryan leaves for 4 months, and we have THREE snow days in a row? God is trying to develop my endurance! )

On another note...a family at church sent me pizza the other day. As I got home, frazzled and wondering how I was going to pack, make dinner, get the kids uniforms ready...and...well, get to bed sometime...the pizza man knocked on my door! It was so wonderful, I actually got tears in my eyes (yes, pregnancy hormones make me SUPER sensitive...but that is another blog). Anyway, I just wanted to share that because I thought it was so special...so thoughtful. I have gotten flowers, cards, candles....but never a pizza on a bad day! Sometimes it is those random acts of kindness that remind us that God does care.
