When in situations of stress we wonder if there is anymore to give. We can be comforted to know that God, who knows our capacity perfectly, placed us here to succeed. No one was foreordained to fail. Let us remember that we were measured before and were found equal to our tasks. When we feel overwhelmed, let us recall the assurance that God will not over-program us; he will not press upon us more than we can bear.

Mommy's Food

So every time I start getting ready to feed Reese, Lily get's upset and says that she wants to eat "Mommy's Food". I always just smile and say, "No, it's just for Reese." Well the other night, Todd was holding Reese while I got all good and comfortable to feed her. As I was getting ready, Lily watched me get ready and then hurry and climbed up on my lap, and said, "I want mommy's food!" I quickly pushed her off my lap and said, "NO!" She still talks about it but I couldn't help but laugh at the swiftness of her climbing up on my lap... I think if I really did offer it to her, she wouldn't like it and leave it alone... Just a funny story I didn't want to forget!

That's so funny! I was reading a book about breastfeeding, and they actually suggested you let your older child try breastfeeding because chances are they wouldn't like it and would leave it alone afterwards...or wouldn't even be able to do it at all. BUT I don't think I could do that. Haha, good luck!
