Just Under the Wire

I remember the days when I had projects completed long in advance. Shopping, wrapping, mailing.

Deadlines were met without a second thought.

Now... not so much. These days we're living just under the wire: Book reports, science projects... and, oh yeah... taxes.

Soon, some of the bigger deadlines will be out of the way, and there will be more room to get a little time cushion on some of the smaller ones. (And, perhaps, even a few minutes to kick up my feet!)

I am grateful for all of the times God seems to "redeem the time" and allow things to be successfully completed! There is a time and a purpose to every season in this life. I'm sure one day this will all make sense....
