So, I've decided I've got to start setting a better example for the girls. This has led to me rearranging my mornings. This new morning won't start until Monday due to our trip; but I'm getting VERY excited about it!
My morning routine used to start around 4:45. It consisted of workout, shower, Quiet Time with God, get ready & eat breakfast on the way to work. This meant that I didn't spend intentional time with the girls. I would see them if they happened to get up before I left. They're breakfast was eaten in front of the TV. But I want to start setting a better example for the girls AND spend intentional time with them.
My new routine is going to go something like this. Get up at 4:50, have my Quiet Time with God (why not make this the FIRST thing I do?!?!), shower, & wake the girls up at 6:45. I then want to read from their Bible to them & work on a memory verse while we eat. Why not start setting the example of starting their day off with Him?!?!?! Then I'll get ready & head to work. I can also get my workout in later, like in the evening. The girls will also see my example of that. Plus it's more fun to do workouts with them!
Awesome Tasha! Convicted me about how I always start my morning with a workout then shower and THEN quiet time I should definitely flip that.
