You're Not Alone....say it one more time.

You're not alone. Gracie ate watermelon for breakfast. And Gracie ate more watermelon all day. And the rest of the day was filled with "accidents," dirty dishes, dirty clothes, more accidents, Cheerios spilled EVERYWHERE, another accident, watermelon juice drippings turn sticky EVERYWHERE, another accident, spit up, near blow out, more accidents, two in a row, as a matter of fact and then gardening for FHE which led to mud in the house and another accident. I am not exaggerating. At one point the word "hell" was addressed to my child. I won't disclose the exact phrase I used, but I knew the line of inner peace had been crossed and I did NOT care. I can only take so many pee pees on my floor. And to top it all off, Grace has been singing "...an earthly home, to parents kind and dear." on and off all day. Just that line. That one single line from a song full of lines! But I believe with all my heart that I am not alone. And that probably was a tender mercy I received because I actually did read my scriptures this morning.
