back to our regularly scheduled schedule

So although we had a house and we tried to be on schedule it didn't always work. Child #1 and little man shared a room and pooh bear had her own. Reasoning was that pooh bear takes F.O.R.E.V.A.H to fall asleep and thus likes to sleep in late. Usually little man falls asleep rather quickly and the we could sneak child #1 in who also falls asleep quickly in to the room and viola bedtime as usual. WRONG! The dynamic duo didn't want to sleep and wanted to wake up EARLY. And Pooh bear well she  was even louder than usual and went to sleep even later and woke up when her brother started screaming  child #1's name. Made for an interesting week of lack of sleep. Granted it was H.O.T. and it wasn't their usual surroundings maybe that's why we found little man like this on several occasions:




This was the first of many occurrences. He also like to take out his mattress and throw it on the floor.

nap time was lacking...sleepy at 6:30



This week they've been sleeping like champs. Musta been all that salty sea air!

A JOURNEY OF THE HEART

"No NO No NO NO No!" That was a recent entry into my journal. I was asked to do something that I without a shadow of a doubt knew it was God asking me to do it. AND I DIDN'T WANT TO! I literally followed it with 2 pages of ME telling God why I didn't want to do it and why I couldn't do it. Yes 2 pages.  Wow! I strapped on my toddler attitude and went to town. *Flashback to 1 month ago* Child #1's Kindergarten teacher, Kara,  also  attends the church we attend and we occasionally see each other at the same service. Well, one particular evening we got to talking and she asked me to join our church's version of VBS. We go to the west side {off campus} of town to the Somalian population and do a day time VBS and lunch for these kids for an entire week. Cool part, my own kids can come and be apart of the "missions trip."  What an invaluable a lesson to my kids to show love to others! Kara is heading crafts and wanted me to craft it up with her. ...

serving with a grateful heart

1 Peter 4:10 "Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms." This year my little gang of cheerios and I have been working on being intentional about serving. To be honest for a long time the excuses of having to many littles was beginning to wear thin. Now I have been looking for opportunities that my littles could easily accomplish. Yesterday, we attended a Lenten service at our church. It was a beautiful Prayer walk. We walked through stations, preparing our hearts for this season of Lent. It was a perfect activity for our family to do together. In the Lenten study package was The Names of God Bible reading challenge . I am really thrilled to focus in on the Names of God for this season. Preparing my heart for the Easter season. So today, the sanctuary needed cleaned. All the stations needed put back in the closets and offices that they were borrowed from. Little ...
