What am I modeling...

Yesterday was the first day full day back from our Florida trip. My cousin's celebration went well and the book signing went well. Now I'm back in the thick of the real world. No more lazy days at the beach or no regard to what time it is. Now I have sinks filling up with dishes, baskets filling up with laundry, boys wanting to know what they can do because they're bored, and book projects waiting to be completed. 
I thought about writing last night when Jacob got home. But instead, I went to bed.

Why do I do this? Do you ever have those moments? Moments when you know there are things that you can get done but you have no motivation to do them?

This morning, I woke up thinking about my boys. Do I challenge them? Do I encourage them to be everything that they can be? And even more so, am I modeling that for them with my own life? My answer is no. All too often, I am modeling excuses. How do I change this? 

God, guide me. Show me the best way to manage my day and the most responsible way to use the time I have been given. Sometimes, ok, most of the times, it is hard to figure out when to do what. I could pour a ton of time into writing and forget to spend time with Jacob and the boys, or I could pour a ton of time into my family and forget to take time to write. Help me with this. Amen.

    A New Identity

    What is this blog about? You mean, I'm supposed to have a purpose? Ok, if that's required then my purpose is life.

    ​This is my life...Searching for truth, ​one day at a time.
    ​I enjoy writing so sometimes that truth comes through storytelling. 

    Better with age...
