God won't give me more than I can handle...right?

So, I'm on day 3 of being back at work. I'm not going to lie, the first 2 days were really rough and though I'm doing much better today, I would still rather be at home with Ryleigh! The firt day was just horrible all around. Nana came to watch Ryleigh on Wednesday, so it wasn't so bad for me to leave the house. I had two major meltdowns at work though - glad I didn't wear much makeup! When Kyle got home from work, he had brought me some roses to make me feel better - they were beautiful! Anyways, Kyle left to work with the kids at church while I stayed home and got dinner ready. Well, around 8:00 Kyle calls to tell me that someone broke into his car while it was in the church parking lot! Seriously, right - who does that? Well, they took his IPod, which we were upset about, but the more upsetting thing is now we have to fix the car (which is less than our insurance deductible) and I'm wrapping up my last week of no paycheck! So you can imagine, I was just ready for the day to be over! I thought day 2 would be better, but it was much harder to pack Ryleigh up and take her somewhere - I lost it before we even left our house! Then I cried all the way to work after I dropped her off! Once I got to work, I did much better. Last night was peaceful, Ryleigh slept all the way through the night with no interruptions and this morning was much much better. No tears so far today! :) Anyways, I've been a little preoccupied to take pictures, so this blog is pictureless! :) I keep repeating the title of this post to myself and basically reminding God of it too. Sometimes I wonder how much he thinks I can really take! :)

  1. I'm so sorry Shannon. I can't imagine how hard it must be. I only went to work 2 days a week and I even had a hard time with that. I knew she was fine, but I wanted to be the one who was with her.

    Dase told me about Kyle's car. That's crazy...a church parking lot?! That really stinks.

    Love you guys- Ash
