Busy Day

My day started off very busy and is just now letting up. After getting my children off to school and my morning prayer and devotional time, I went to the church to set up the maze for this Friday Night's Hallejuah Night. We spent from about 10:00 to 1:00 on the maze, broke for lunch and came back and finished it. I left the church at 3:40 to get back home as the bus was dropping the children off. Then had to get homework and prepare for a Girl Scout Lesson for tonight while also preparing supper for my three children with my Hubby out of town....WHEW, I am really tired. I should sleep good tonight.

The rest of my week will be very full preparing for the Hallejuah Night and several other things going on for the week at school.

In the midst of my busy life, I reflect on Psalm 81:13-16
God had provided his covenant that He would restore His people if they would listen to Him. God remains faithful in our relationship with Him and is patiently waiting for our responses so He can pour out His blessings.

I believe God will restore us to Him if we take time to spend with Him and wait for Him in every aspect of our lives.

I am so proud.....

of my children. We had parent/teacher conferences last week and I am amazed at how great my children are doing in school. Emilea has totally made a 360 degree turn around and is reading and on level where she should be at this point and Josh is doing great in all his classes. I am teaching Valerie the fundamentals and she is becoming her own liitle person with all the emotions and opinions of an adult.
I am greatful that God has really blessed me with wonderful children. If you have children and have not taken the time today, just stop and thank God for being blessed enough to be a part of their lives and them yours.

Kids say the cutest things....

Emilea (7 years old) got up this morning and decided it was a little too chilly out to wear the shorts she had layed out for school today. She then comes to me and says "Mom, do you know where those blonde pants are?" I say "Blonde pants? I'm not sure which pants you are talking about." She then begins to describe them "You know those pants like we had to wear last year." Me, still clueless, "What do they look like or what color are they?" She says, "You know, they are called something. Uh, Uh, Uni pants." She was wanting her kahi pants and she couldn't remember that they were also called uniform pants. Oh, the joys of motherhood. You not only have to be a mother, chef, maid, chaufer, referee, tutor, nurse and coach. Now we add interperter to the list. But I wouldn't trade it for the world.
