Happy Multitude Monday!
Ann Voskamp's post today about the dailyness of dishes truly resonated. Although our janitor at school was a hot mess many days, I want a janitor to help out around our school aka home :) The never ending messes tho! But let's take a minute to see the beauty in the dailyness of the dishes. The daily joys through the journey. Watching how God is in every minute and His faithfulness shines bright and how our faithfulness needs to shine bright as well. "Faithfulness is built on the ordinary things we do faithfully every day."(annvoskamp.com, 2021).
Thankful for amazing weather. We are always in awe that it's really winter.
Thankful for our health.
Thankful for Harrison, my amazing cheerleader when we work out together. He may be my biggest debater at home yet in public his heart for his momma shines big! Love you buddy!
Thankful for our new venture of homeschooling going well. This is week 3 of Hebert Homeschool for 2 out of 4, and so far so good! We love the new routines and flexibility!
Thankful for spiritual nourishment this weekend. Some weeks can feel noisy and full - and yet empty. Shame on me! But it's the truth! Other weeks can be noisy yet quiet, full yet peaceful & leave your heart , mind and soul at ease. This weekend was that. It started strong by a foundations Crossfit class . Just 5 of us understanding the whys of Crossfit. Understanding the whys of anything are important and it helped set a reflective mindset. Then we visited a local church to hear fellow Crossfitter and Fittest Man on Earth Rich Fronig share a message. It was inspirational. It gave us pause for reflection. It gave the kids a new to them play place- for the 1st time since March all 3 were in separate classes! Then our own gathering on Sunday, had our good friend as the guest speaker on zoom, all the way from Toronto. His passion for the truth and his mesmerizing speaking style made for a wonderful Family Bible Hour.
Thankful for Hudson's basketball camp. Having a special needs sporting event, where there are no disclaimers to the coach before hand, there are no wonderings about what crazy phrase your son will say in all innocence, yet with great offense, or what aggression may come or what misunderstanding will ensue. We walk in. He is totally, 100% understood. There is a peace that passes all understanding. That. It's felt. In such big ways and you guys, its so refreshing. SO. His coach had a skin pigmentation that was black and white, and Hudson said, "hey you look like a pig". I died. With embarrassment like wanting to crawl away and just hide. How could he have literally just said that!? In all honesty I got where Hudson was coming from- because of course his skin did look like the pig we saw at the farmers market- but hello?! Saying that to a human is beyond rude on every level!? And that my friends is part of Hudson's dynamic- that missing link to understand social norms. But the coach understood. He knew he was there to love on kids that were made in unique ways, and he laughed, and played and coached Hudson with all his heart. It was the BEST. So. very. thankful.
