Spring Break Melt Down!!!!







I know that for some of you...Spring Break is just starting. For Paso schools...we are coming to the end. I LOVE having my kids at home. There is something so comforting knowing exactly where your kids are...and getting to stay in pjs until noon! Ok...first I have to be honest with you...I have had a major melt down this break...maybe you can identify with me...or maybe you will think I am just CrAzY...which I absolutely am:) My FrEaK out was last week. I have been super busy...and my kids have had to just hang around the house. My vaccuum cleaner recently broke and I just hate to spend money on things like that! My husband came home with a brand new one for me and YES pathetically I was really excited about it. My daughter and son were given the chore of vaccuuming the stairs and were fighting about it....dropped the vacuum down a flight of stairs and broke it. This was not my shining moment as a mom. Lets just say...spitting mad is not just a saying!!! I wanted to fling that vacuum across the room!! I was so mad that they did not care enough about me to not fight and help me out a llittle around here. Ok...I took it a little personal:) So...I made myself a cup of tea and a took timeout...then apologized to my kids. NOT that I was completely wrong...BUT I did apologize for the yelling & spitting. They are so forgiving...thank God. Why I am sharing this with...I do not exactly know.


Maybe someone else had a CrAzY moment too???? This break has been precious in so many ways. I have enjoyed lots of down time with my kids and really having amazing conversations with them. One bad episode did not take away from this time at all.


Have you had any special Spring Break moments??? Maybe you could share some of your beautiful Easter traditions with us. If you have a moment...make a comment at the bottom of this post and let us know how you are doing. Since we are not meeting again until April 23...we do not want to lose touch.


Most of all...the Elements Team @ Highland Church would like to wish you a Happy Easter. May God bless you and your beautiful families!


Lots of Love...Kristin
