She starts to cry and Belle says, "it's okay Bean, it's okay."
Bean responds screaming, "NO Bell! It NOT okay!"
I explained to Bean that Bell is trying to make her feel better because she knows it will be okay soon. It wont hurt forever.
And this is the inner dialogue I have going on most of the time. Knowing it will all be okay while at the same time, right now, it's NOT okay.
Thank goodness for the promises He always keeps. For the comfort He provides via family and friends and His word. It will be okay - God always keeps his promises.
Here are some pictures from this morning. The girls got into some trouble in the bathroom while Aunt Jill and I were chatting. They also enjoyed some amazingly yummy peanut butter and chocolate cookies Aunt Jill made. Delicious!

Nikki,
ReplyDeleteIt's OK to say It's not Okay now. Give yourself some time to do that. I am so glad that you have the girls to make you laugh. It is also OK to laugh. The bathroom picture made me laugh as well! They must really keep you on your toes! Thinking and praying for you and the girls everyday.
Praying for you tonight. I laughed out loud at the bathroom picture. I don't know what it is about feminine products, but they sure are a hit with the toddlers. A few weeks ago Murray stuck all my pantyliners to his bare butt...I so wish I had a picture of that!! Glad you had some laughter along with the sadness today.
ReplyDeleteHilarious! Hmm...best picture ever! Okay, not ever, but that is pretty funny.
ReplyDeletehow is Aunt Jill????
ReplyDeleteShe's doing well. :) I'll be hanging out with her tomorrow! ;)
