Thought of the day....

How can one family have so much laundry???

Yet another moment..

Me watching Sabrina what's-her-name dance the Cha Cha to "Don't cha" (PussyCat Dolls song)

Me thinking Sabrina so-n-so is a really good dancer and I hope she wins!

My son Todd sitting at the dining room table, finishing his homework (read.. he was not watching it with me) saying...Mom, you know when the song says "Don't cha wish your girlfriend was hot like me." Well, that's my favorite part.

My thoughts....."Oh CRAP!!!"

One of those moments....

Me getting a phone call from my husband about the complete unstability of his job.

Me trying not to worry about it.

Hannah and I laying on the my bed, snuggling before sleep time.

Hannah asking to sing one of our songs.

Me starting in with..."It is good to praise the Lord" and raising my hands.

Hannah copying me, her little chubby fingers stretched out as far as they can go.

Me silently crying while singing because the moment was so precious it made my heart hurt.

Me realizing that God knows even when I do not.

The Muppets Show..

This was only one of the few shows that we were allowed to watch growing up. I can still sit through a show and laugh because it is just a classic!! :)

My favorite character... Beeker. Poor guy.. no one ever understood him, and I can totally relate. :)

It's Paula time.... POSTPONED until you all get back to me!! :)

Who is ready to discuss our first book?? I am.... I need to, or I will forget what I read.

So, because school has started, I am thinking THIS Thursday morning at Java Mama. And..... even if you haven't read the book, please come because I am a middle child and it hurts my feelings when no one shows up. :)

Comment and let me know if you can make it!! :)

10am, Thursday September 6th... Java Mama.

Tea for 2, and 2 for Tea...

News of the day... I sang on worship team today.. such a blessing to me everytime I get to be up there with the team. I teared up on Friday night during "Still I will worship" because of some of the things that God has been speaking to me. I thought I was over it, but I was wrong. Sunday morning the words hit me like a ton of bricks and I had to bow my head and try to hide the fact that I was crying... tears even got on my shirt!! :) I am sure God had a purpose for that, but I was a little embarassed.

I hope they don't kick me off..... :)


On another note... My kiddos are trying to occupy their time while staying cool. We don't go outside when it is this hot!! So, today they decided to have a tea party. I made them real English tea (but the trick is to use hot tap water instead of boiling so there are no burns) with honey and cream and they have a blast making their own concoctions. Today the pastry of choice was Chocolate Chip Teddy Grahams. I know.. I know.. my kids have such refined taste buds. It can't be helped. They come from a long line of gourmands! :)

Here's a few snaps to share the day. Go make some tea.....


Ps... new post will be here soon regarding the first book club meeting....
