God's Listening!

This afternoon I had a special prayer intention on my heart. I decided I would pray a rosary and offer it up for my intention. In minutes I located my rosary in one of the pockets in my mess I created in my diaper bag. I started praying the rosary and of course Emma's curiosity brought her my way. We started going through Jeesie on the cross, Mary in the middle and the prayers we say. She pulled on it a little, and I thought maybe she should help me hold the beads, well needless to say, I started looking for my Cd.---Let me say something before I go on.... my daughters are amazing. I love them dearly. They are so much fun. Sometimes it's just hard to get the things you want done when you want them.---okay, on to what I was saying. I couldn't find it. I went on line to download an audio version from Mother Angelica. I spent 10 mins trying to download all this extra stuff for it not to work. I just kept telling God I don't want these little things to steal my joy today. It kinda became my little montra of the day. In the midst of trying to say the rosary, my other daughter could not be consoled. I just felt my blood pressure wanting to rise, but I kept repeating my "montra". I found things that would normally steal my joy were occurring left and right. I kept praying and still stood firm.

A couple of hours later my husband came home. I was so excited to see him. Once he came home we hurried up and loaded the girls into the car to go to GiGi's house for family night. I first had to stop for gas and of course it is raining horizontially!!!! Got gas and booked it to Lafayette to be with our family. I feel we could not have had a better night. We had so much fun, and were able to help celebrate my cousin Donna's birthday. The visit was just wonderful, we ended up staying till almost 10pm. After we left, we went water Poppie's flowers. When we got in the car I couldn't help but realize Jesus had answered all my prayers. Even through the interruptions and failed attempts of the day God WAS listening!
