Another Dose of Perspective

Today was another doozy. Screaming, knashing of teeth (or gums in our case), you know, the whole shabang. Drew called this afternoon and I almost lost it on the phone with him. I am just SO drained. Finally, I just gave up fighting and went to Sam's. Surprisingly, Brayden did well and just talked to himself as I perused the aisles in hopes to regain some of my sanity (as I sipped on my coke icee). On the way home however, he started crying again. As I was veering off of the interstate (ok, I really wasn't, but I kind of felt like it) Darius Rucker's song "It Won't Be Like This For Long" came on and God gave me my 2nd dose of perspective this week. I started crying and pretty much cried myself back home. Thank you God for reminding me that these moments are fleeting and I need to make the most of them. And thank you for this precious gift; I prayed so hard for this little being, and you blessed us with an answered prayer. May I always remember, even through the screaming.
PS-- I know I already posted this video before, but I figured I would post it again since I made mention of it.
