BOY has life been busy these last few weeks! Here's a brief (albeit full) recap:
* All 4 girls to the dentist for cleanings
* Babysat the cousins for 3 days
* Church
* AWANA Grand Prix
* Superbowl Sunday
* A few Dr. appts for Mommy
* Busy work for Big Daddy
* Art projects
* School work
* Every day life: cooking, cleaning, child-rearing, laughing, loving, and sleeping... :)
Today was a day. We've been focusing on learning that LOVE is a VERB. It is not feelings, it is actions! Yesterday's lesson was "Love is patient, love is kind" (I Corinthians 13:4a). I, apparently had to back to the beginning and learn it again today. On the way to Boise, I got a flat tire on the freeway--then called Mom and had her come get me, while I left a message for Hubby that we'd have to get it later. Got home, and got a call from the Idaho State Police that I had to come get it by 2 p.m., or they'd have it impounded. Then I re-signed up for AAA, asked them to meet us there, headed back to Boise (where he was a little grumpy because I was a little late). THEN, we had it towed to Les Schwab in Boise (but he actually towed it to Commercial Tire, so I had to drive it across the street, but no biggie). Half hour wait--what to do? Head to Taco Bell! We had lunch--2 hungry moms and 4 hungry girls. Then back to Les Schwab to pick up the van, have a cup of free coffee, and take 3 girls to the bathroom! Then, back home to put Baby Girl down for a nap, while 3 big girls studied and did school work. PATIENCE IS A VIRTUE...LOVE IS PATIENT. Lord, please don't make me learn it again tomorrow...I hope it's good enough for today! :)
Finally, I need to make it known that tonight is soup and sandwich night. Sorry, no cooking is happening here....I hope it's okay with Big Daddy, but I gave up around 3:30. So long--I need to get out the cans of soup and get dinner ready, so we can get to AWANA on time (which we have to leave for in about an hour). I'm so thankful I get to homeschool! Have I mentioned that lately?
