it really makes me thankful for having the opportunity to have such a busy life, to have clothes to wash, dinner to cook, television to turn on for my sick child to watch while he rests, an oven to bake my friends cake in, books to read, a HOUSE to feel safe and comfortable in, a husband to make lunches for because he has a job to go to, a computer to write this blog from and to promote my business, bathrooms to clean, beds to make, a car to drive my kids to dance class in, a kitchen to cook dinner in, beds to tuck my kids into at night
that being said, i am sooo thankful for my busy, busy life...this is what my day looked like...
bake princess cake for friend's daughter...
decorate tomorrow...
time out for a "mr. frog" break...

sick boy...

1. k to dance class
2. dinner
3. laundry
4. give e a bath
5. dishes
6. bedtime stories with e (one of my favorite times of the day!)
7. Bible time with jimmie
8. sleep....
i think today was a pretty productive day!
i thank God for all of the comforts and "stuff" that we have, that so many here in our own country do not... i am trying hard not to take anything for granted...
have an extra sparkly and happy evening!
