And trying to deal with three while injured and incapacitated is where I've been living for the past eight years. I pray for you as you process the struggle to embrace the chaos and work for growth and maturity rather than organizing your way out of the chaos and stunting growth. It's very hard. It is possible. It's very hard. No other work is more important. I also pray that you will remember to ask for help, since you seem to have a network for support. This is something that I did not really have--and seven years of need would challenge any support network! Be blessed. Eric,

I am so there with you sister…with three, you’re outnumbered! And trying to deal with three while injured and incapacitated is where I’ve been living for the past eight years.

I pray for you as you process the struggle to embrace the chaos and work for growth and maturity rather than organizing your way out of the chaos and stunting growth. It’s very hard. It is possible. It’s very hard. No other work is more important.

Be blessed.
