Day Six

Today I woke up exhausted from only a few hours of sleep. I will admit that completing this goal while having a little one still not sleeping through the night adds its challenges to the mix. But I am grateful for a supportive husband who desires me to succeed and is there to help when I don't know how to do it myself.

The workout was invigorating and rejuvenating. It was just what I needed to lift my spirits, brush the sleep from my eyes and give me the energy to face the day. Granted it is now 12:30 so there isn't much more day to face, but it is the weekend and weekends are meant to slow time down.

While I was reading the scriptures this morning, I couldn't help seeing in the words I read that the Savior truly does want each of us to succeed and prosper. If we are allowing to let Him into our lives and do His will, He in turn allows us to succeed with our dreams and desires. I am just grateful for making the goal to read daily too. It has given me such strength and hope. And on the roller coaster I am riding, that is just what I need.

A funny thought: Last night my husband turned to me in bed and told me how he admired me for what I am doing. He must of known how badly I needed to hear those words. I told him that I hope that he can handle the roller coaster ride. He said, "I love roller coasters, WEEEE!" I laughed and said that after this ride, he may not want to get back on. I am so grateful for him. And for saying the right thing at the right time.
