Gentle Promptings

I saw God today as I stood in the kitchen with my breakfast and had to decide, "do I go in my room and turn on the TV while I eat, or do I go sit at the table with my 3 year old"  even as I type this it seems a no brainer, but there are days and even moments when I just want to be selfish and not be a good mom.  But the thought (prompting) came to me.  "There is nothing you could learn on that tv show that is more important than the time spent with your 3 year old."  So I made the choice to walk to the table, and sit down, and eat as I listened to the chatter of a 3 year old and then after I finished eating, helped him eat, since he was more interested in talking than eating at the moment.  I made a choice, and it has made all the difference throughout the day.
