So Gratetful for Chaos

I love my life, I love my husband, I love my kids! There are days though, that despite my love for these things I feel overwhelmed in a temporary moment of chaos. Lately when this chaos tries to overtake me I am able to keep my perspective, because I know things could be worse, I know how lucky I am. There are a number of blogs I have come across through friends of some amazing women. Women I have never met & don't know, but who have suffered terrible losses, the loss of a child! I read their blogs as they pour out their agonizing hearts, I am sure they shed many tears while they write, just as I shed many tears reading what they have written.

These women help me get through my small moments of frustration & chaos, because they are great examples of strength & faith. I know we all have one thing in common... our faith & love in Jesus Christ, a faith we have strengthened over the years through The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. I am so grateful for my testimony of the gospel of Jesus Christ & my Savior's love for me.

Feel free to see for yourself how amazing these women are:

WOW!!! Thanks for sharing. I have been feeling like crap lately and it was strengthening to read you testimony. I have always looked at you as a TOTALLY put together person (at least when you didn't have kids... I am sure you are still that way). I really needed to read this today so thank you!

All I have to say is those women are very strong. I am not sure that I would be able to handle all of the stress. Their blogs are wonderful to read. It makes me really think about all of the many blessings that I have in life and that I need to be more thankful for them. Thanks for sharing their blogs with us Megan.
