After doing the overnight shift with the baby last night, I had a much-needed day off today. I finished setting up my room, read the Bible, chatted with family, went to the gym, and just relaxed! It feels good to be able to recharge my batteries so I can be at my best when caring for the children. Those little ones really tire me out!
Today, I was also feeling quite homesick. Luckily, I was able to video chat with my parents back home. They always know the right words to say to give me strength and guidance in any situation. I am beyond blessed to have such a wonderful, loving family. Being here has made me appreciate that blessing more than ever before.
The rest of the week will be filled with playtime, snack time, bath time, and bedtime. Can't relax for too long! ;)
"Be at rest once more, O my soul, for the LORD has been good to you. For you, O LORD, have delivered my soul from death, my eyes from tears, my feet from stumbling, that I may walk before the LORD in the land of the living." - Psalm 116:7-9
