Full Circle

The day has come full circle from cold and rainy with only two of our children home to full sun and a beautiful breeze with our house full again. We have missed Kalyn and Melissa this week as they spent it with their dad in Kentucky. As Mom I love to get the phone call asking when they can come home. NOW is always the response. They enjoy their time away but find peace here and want to come back. That's all I can ask for. Its hard to tell now that their home who makes more noise in the house. The obvious note is that Kalyn can rile up Abigail and Elianna pretty well.

Mocha is a source of pitty in our house this week. I decided to give her a hair cut and went a little too short. She also has only one leg that is trimed and three that are still longer. She is a good sport and never is embarassed by her looks, although Jonathan has a great time teasing both her and me.

The garage sale has taken a tole on me. Unfortunately I am in bed early again with terrible pain. I was hoping since we rained out today that I would be able to stay up with the kids tonight until a reasonable hour. It always takes me by surprise how long it takes me to recover from things. Prayers are always appreciated for help with this struggle. And a miracle of healing would be nice!!!

We are all looking forward to our visit with Aunt Miriam. We only get this opportunity once a year and here we are. Abigail has a long list in mind of things to do and thankfully Elianna will go along with the flow. As will the rest of us. We hope for nice weather to ride bikes, fly kites, go to the park, swim, play games and maybe even have a bonfire with marshmallows and chocolate!

Its hard to believe that school registration is this wednesday, all my girls will be in school this year. What will I do....

• pray hard for happy, healthy kids
• share time with friends and family
• knit
• quilt (I have to catch up)
• pray
• rest for the evening
• read
• pray
• exercise (yes, I'm supposed to do it)

Well thats a list that will keep me busy. Please let me know if I should be doing anything else.

Peace and love to all and God Bless You!
