The life of a homeschooling mom is a busy one. Throw a baby in there… and it feels like a day at the Indy 500. Going around and around the same circle at ridiculous speeds. Burn-outs, crashes… and constant pit-stops needed.  The only difference is that I don’t have a team in jumpsuits to help me!!

With all of the things that I am trying to do on a daily basis,  styling hair and applying make-up don’t fit in. Rarely do I wear anything besides sweat pants! Recently, I’ve taken to wearing hats on days that I cannot do anything with my hair.  Unfortunately, I think the hat IS my new hair style.

I’m so grateful for these accessories that cover up my lack of time and style!  They cover up my unruly hair that needs 20+ minutes of blow-drying or flat-ironing.

I was thinking today about how God’s grace is like my favorite hat…

But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions—it is by grace you have been saved. Ephesians 2:4-5

Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins. 1 peter 4:8

His love covers my sins… just like the hat covers my imperfections. Every time I throw my hat on to run out the door, I am reminded that God covers me and you with His love and grace.
