"These Are The Things"

Kylie and I have a new favorite song that we sing at the T.O.P of our lungs. I think that she just likes it because of the tempo/beat. I love it because it describes the season of life I am in now. I am a busy mother and wife. It seems like I can't keep up...like if I just had a few more hours in the day I would somehow feel accomplished and caught up.

Here are the words (Sung by Francesca Battistelli):

I lost my keys
In the great unknown
And call me please
'Cause I can't find my phone

Chorus:
This is the stuff that drives me crazy.
This is the stuff that's getting to me lately.
In the middle of my little mess
I forget how big I'm blessed

This is the stuff that gets under my skin
But I've got to trust You know exactly what You're doing
Might not be what I might choose
But this is the stuff you use

45 in a 35
Sirens and fines
While I'm running behind

Chorus repeated

So break me of impatience
Conquer my frustrations
I've got a new appreciation
It's not the end of the world

This is the stuff that drives me crazy.
This is the stuff
Someone save me
In the middle of little my mess
I forget how big I'm blessed

This is the stuff that gets under my skin
And I've gotta trust you know exactly what You're doing
Might not be what I would choose but this is the stuff You use

This is the stuff You use


So...I am trying {really} hard to let the little things slide...accept that I may not get it all done today...that tomorrow is a new day. I pray that God 'will break me of impatience and conquer my frustrations'.

Just a few of the things that make me realize how BIG I'm blessed :)
