Today was my 3rd week weigh-in at Weight Watchers. I lost another 1.6 for a total of 7.2! I am beyond thrilled! I am hoping to make the 10lb. mark by the end of March. I've got to up my work outs this week ... I signed up for the Title Nine 9k Mother's Day run in May. I got in some good weight lifting this past week which feels really awesome. I am just super dooooper proud of myself and my resolve to be a healthy mama. I can feel God working on me in so many ways right now and the lessons being learned are amazing.
The "20 months" in my title refers to my Gracie Lou. I don't think she has stopped fussing this morning but for a few moments that she had a toothbrush in her mouth. Here come the terrible two's man, I can feel it. I remember on Matthew's 2nd birthday, how he woke up from bed ... he spent the entire day in fits, crying, and it was horrendous. I thought, "Wow, there really is some truth to the whole terrible two deal" ... it is showing up early with Grace. She is just a complete fuss bucket this morning. She even screamed "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" to me in the kitchen about orange juice, which just made me laugh out loud.
I've got to find something to laugh about ... this is how I cope.
Thank you Lord for my weight loss this week. Thank you for continuing to work on my heart and soul. Thank you for giving me the energy to deal with a 20 month old that can do nothing but cry and fuss right now. Thank you Lord for my sense of humor ... for making it possible that I can laugh and find something funny in an almost two-year-old tantrum about orange juice. Through the day to day struggles of this life Lord, Thank you for your Grace, it is sufficient for me. Amen.
