Wing It Mom: Fall

Fall

I love this time of year! I feel like buying notebooks and pencils and starting back to school. I have always loved being a student. (okay, there was a stage in college where I was more interested in studying my intended than my books, but I bounced back from that!). Pretty much...
I am so excited for my children to start school next week. Not just because they are getting a little stir crazy... well... a little because they are getting stir crazy... I love all the opportunity before them! I read a blog post recently that compared this time of year to New Years Eve. To me, this time of year is more New Years Eveish than New Years Eve itself. What excitement! What possibility lies before us! All the things we will learn this year! All the experiences we will have!! All the ways we will grow!!! And so, it is with great anticipation that I look forward to next week. An end to a great summer, but a beginning of a new school year.

"Therefore I tell you, do you be anxious about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, nor about your body, what you will put on. Is now life more than food, and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? And which of you by being anxious can add a single hour to his span of life? Any why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin, yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is alive and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? Therefore do not be anxious, saying, 'What shall we eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we wear?' For the Gentiles seek after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you needs them all. But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. "Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.
