A really bad start ended is a sweet blessing
It seem that every Sunday something tries to keep us from church. Yesterday morning I woke up early to get myself and everyone ready. I can truly say that I did not have anything to wear. Everything is too big or to small and my lack of a tan kept me from wearing a dress, so I rushed to Target and found something. Ok.... a few somethings.
I get back home, rush around and get everyone (including Jeff) ready.We got everyone in the truck just to discover the truck was having issues and there was no way we were going any where.
Ok.. when I started this blog I promised to be honest, even about the ugly stuff. Well... it got ugly this Sunday morning. I lost it. I threw a fit. The kind of fit that if one of the kids threw they would be grounded until my grandchildren went away to collage. I am embarrassed by they way I acted.
In my defenseIi think it was a lot of things that hit me all at once. You moms out there know how exhausting raising children is. Jeff is almost as much work as all the kids put together. I cleaned all week and in one weekend my home looks like a bomb went off. I always feel like I am being pulled in a hundred directions. I am so sad about Sara moving and worried sick for my mother.
We got settled back in the house and I had calmed down. The next thing I know Brenna runs down and hands an "invitation" to a church service upstairs in Ollie's room.
Brenna gave the sweetest 'sermon" I have ever heard.
A lot of her facts where off a bit, which just proves we need to be at church every week, but her heart was there. I am so glad that I thought to grab my camera and record her.
We spent the day playing. We made brownies (since we where out of ice cream for sundaes) and watched Thor on pay per view. Below are pictures from our day.
