Okay, the sun is shining, the kids are in great moods, it's 7:45 am and we have already completed breakfast...what's going on here? Thank you Lord for new days! Yesterday was another story. Tayah has not been feeling great, some weird fever thing that is part of a virus. You viruses really burn me up...there's nothing you can do about 'em. The doctors say "You've just gotta let them take their course." What kind of advice is that? What if I don't wanna let them "take their course", it is making my child miserable. Stinkin' influenza. Well, since she is not feeling good, she wants to be held ALL DAY. Which is fine, right? Yes, holding my children is wonderful, until they begin fighting over my lap. I'm telling you they fight over EVERYTHING. They would fight over who got to step on which piece of grass if I let them. Anyway, so Tayah wanted to sit there, then Kolton wanted to sit there, then they are both sitting there pushing each other out of the way while Kason is asking me to pull up a game on the computer for him then all at once..."I WANNA SNACK!" Okay, one thing at a time kids, oh wait, they don't work that way. Everything has to be done all at the same time! It's always an adventure in our home. Trying to comfort my kids all day, while making each and every meal, do enough laundry just so we can have some clean towels to take a shower with and have the house looking somewhat decent before Daddy gets home is not my idea of a "great" day. Needless to say, I was pooped yesterday. Shoot, we need a vacation!
Anyway, my Wednesday nights are usually pretty calm because Kason and I get to drive all the way to our church (about 20-30 minutes down the road) for his AWANA's class. That was not the case for last night. I took him to his class then I had to rush to the grocery store to pick up everything that we needed at the house plus, it's my turn to make the food for our Bunco tonight. Then rush back to the church to pick him up and get home. Ordinarily, I would be thrilled that it was my turn to do the food, I LOVE COOKING AND BAKING AND ANYTHING THAT HAS TO DO WITH A RECIPE, but I've had something going on EVERY night this week. Phew!
Buuuuuut, like I was saying today is a new day and I am thankful and we are going to make the most out of this! Hopefully, it will get above 50 degrees outside. ;) Plus, my sweet friend Joanie, gave me a new book that is going to help our family tremendously! It's called Have a New Kid by Friday, by Dr. Kevin Leman. I am so excited to start reading it, I've already heard so many great things about it. Well, we're off to get Kason to school this morning...and our first fight of the day has just broke out, better go referree.
Have a beautiful day everyone!
