JUNE

There's always a million things on the horizon, right?!
So I can only take brief glances at the future ~ just kinda get a overall view of what's coming up ~ then deal with each day as it comes. Yes, I have to get some bigger projects done - that's important. Yet I also have diapers to change, baths to give, dishes & laundry never stop piling up, even books to read aloud to small children - and all of that is just as important. If I start thinking of EVERYTHING that's coming up, I'll go *insane*~
Soooooo....
Yes, we've got lots coming up. I've got tons to do. But for now, I'm gonna go make up some bread pudding & vanilla sauce (for Dean & I), and a batch of cookies (for the kiddos - ok, and for Dean & I), nurse the baby and watch BOLT! with my babies.
Hey, that's important stuff right there~

Ain't it grand to "live life?" haha Glad we have a great God walking along with us through all of this.....I quote that verse to myself SO many times....God is not a God of confusion! THANK GOODNESS! See you this weekend several times...haha
Bread pudding with vanilla sauce?? I LOVE Vanilla sauce!!
Sounds like you have a lot going on! It will be a sweet breath of relief once your house is closed on and you have everything moved in and semi-unpacked. June will come very quickly!
Ya know, Jeni, I was just thinking, "well...at least our life is never *boring*!"
I enjoy a "nothing" day every now and again, but overall, I like our busy days. I feel especially blessed 'cause so much of our busy-ness happens together!! Dean & I get to do so much work and play and hobbies TOGETHER! A lot of the times, we can even do these things WITH our little ones ~ what a blessing!!
See ya...tomorrow, then Saturday, then Sunday morning, then Sunday evening.....;)

lori--just keep swimming. lol Remember to breathe and enjoy your mom. I'm sorry I'm not well enough to help you with anything. I have a seroma area in my incision so it can heal from the inside out. Pray for good results in about two weeks, also on a strong antibiotic to prevent infection problems. love ya.
p.s. that seroma needs to be packed everyday for proper healing.
