Do you ever wish you could spend more time in the Word, but you're just so busy taking care of your home and family that you don't know how you possibly can? Yeah, I've been there. I'm not sure what it was about my youngest, but I was so exhausted when I was pregnant with her! And even after she was born, she did NOT want to be put down for a second! It. was. exhausting.
