I needed a break. Doesn't everyone? So I had a plan. Work crazy hard on Wednesday. Enjoy the hour that the oldest three kids were gone at AWANA. It's much better relaxing, after you've worked hard and have a clean house to show for it. I was going to sleep in a half hour later on Thursday. (The phone rang much much earlier then I excepted and woke me up...oh well.) This didn't stop my plan. After the shower, I made coffee and sat down to read. Billy was on the clock. He put laundry in, woke up the kids, got breakfast, got them ready for school, cleaned up the dishes...and on and on. I sat and read. That's it. He blessed me with precious time. Then he took the kids to school and the little ones went with him. Yes, a quiet house for 45 minutes. Glorious. When he returned we packed up for a walk and lunch at Ravine Gardens. And this weekend we have a beach day and zoo day plans in the works. (All at no cost!! Except gas money....boo!!) I have felt a need for a break for a while and I am so happy to have had simple quiet time this morning. Family time will be this weekend. Precious.
Currently the pictures will not load onto the computer. Soon I'd like to post pics of soccer and of our mornings at home with my two little girls, but right now that's not happening.
