Mom's Tree House Writing Club
Today's writing prompt from Mom's Tree House I am working on is:
#3 Sometimes, I’m a bad mommy because…
(This is kind of a strange one considering the previous quote I posted, but I'm still going with the prompt.)
Sometimes I lose my temper and I know that my thoughts are no longer focused on God and Love. By moving from the loving thoughts I let my temper get the better of me and take it out of the kids usually by simply ignoring them. I know it is better to take the time out, but the best thing would be to not let my temper take over. I have a wonderful book that was given to me , the title is something like "10 minute time outs for Mommy" that has been a wonderful tool with Scripture verses and tools to get back on track to being the Mommy my boys want and need me to be (fun and loving)
Writer's Workshop at Bloggy Moms 3/23/2011
The week got a way from me as far as my writing. (Luckily the link up isn't until Monday the 28th so I'm ok)
The prompt this week is/ was:
This week, I want you to find a quote that moves you. Post the quote and the author, if known. Why does this quote move you? How does it make you feel? It doesn't necessarily have to be one that makes you feel all warm and fuzzy. Maybe there's one that makes you laugh or want to scream at the top of your voice.
"We have nothing to fear when Love is at the helm of thought, but everything to enjoy on earth and in heaven."

Sometimes this quote is a real help during the week while things seem to be taking me down. With everything I try to do I seem to forget that something as simple as the Love of God is enough to get me through even the darkest moments. As long as we remember and work toward loving thoughts and keeping those loving thoughts there can be nothing else.
