Overwhelming Stress

I keep telling myself that it will all get better. It has to, right? Yet I sometimes feel like the world is working against me. Instead of things getting better they either stay the same or get worse. It's so hard not to give into this. I try each day to start out with good intentions and pray for some good things, but nothing happens. Rather than improving, it seems that the weight of the world continues to build on my very heavy shoulders.

Nothing new in the job world for the hubby. It can be very frustrating some days and this is one of them! I try not to let it get me down, but sometimes it just seems more than I can bear. I also received one of the worst criticisms that I have to date from a client. How can you not let it all get to you after awhile? How can you start off each day with hope only to have it bet met with disappointment? I'm really struggling right now and it seems that each week it just gets harder.

Thank God for Faith or I'm not quite sure what I'd do. She is my glimmer of hope in a pretty crappy world right now. She keeps me smiling and with her new found skill of singing, she makes me eternally happy. No matter how hard the day is or how tough things may seem, she always seems to make them better.
Her growing vocabulary now includes:
nore, bath, shoes, more, cup, dog, cookie, mama, dada, pool, hi, bye, baby, book, cat, nana (grandma), bellybutton (an attempt at the word), out, no (that's a big one right now), chair, and on and on the list goes! It seems that she's trying to say something new everyday!
She's also learned to repeat what all the animals on the farm say so that's really fun to listen to!

I know how truly blessed I am to have her, and that's what keeps me going on days like this. I try to reming myself of that but sometimes it's tough. There are some days that I feel as though
I'm not the best mom I could be because of the stress. Oh how I wish it would get better and we'd see brigher times in the near future. I keep hoping but sometimes this overwhelming stress just gets the best of me.

Hoping for a very bright future and some good things to replace the stress!
