Where it...Rest is essential and a Biblical concept. Where it is not Biblical is when it turns to laziness and nothing gets accomplished. Not that mommas get to really "rest", I love how the Lord allows me to be at rest even though busy. Though I get more "rest" than you do!! Make sure you take some time to rest, emails and blog posts can wait, though I enjoy catching up through them!!!April Piercenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7259713025368975804.post-91608304092931639642012-02-21T00:26:06.686-05:002012-02-21T00:26:06.686-05:00We had a 3 day weekend in honour of Family Day her...We had a 3 day weekend in honour of Family Day here - and it was good :) I hope you find energy for all that you need and want to do this week.
