Good morning

I actually slept last night. And feel ready to face today. Which is a nice feeling.
Rob came home from work last night--and kicked me out of the house for a couple hours. It was a very very nice break. Kaylin is cutting a eye tooth & a molar--and she is CRANKY! And she wanted nothing to do with nursing, so I had NO means to comfort her. It was a LONG day.
The morning the kids were good. We went to my littlest sister's soccer game, and then out for pizza. The kids had a riot--and Kaylin was happy. These days I seem to rearange my life around whether Kaylin is happy or not. She essentially didn't get teeth until 11.5 months--so was just plain a happy baby. This teething business now is FOR the BIRDS!!!
In the van yesterday Samuel asked a question, and Zeria answered it. I agreed that her answer was right. Zeria smiled and said--thats because "Big sisters are ALWAYS right!" ROFL!
I informed her that mommys make many mistakes--and so do big sisters. She then of course wanted to know what mistakes mommy makes. So I told her mommys got grumpy, and that wasn't nice. And sometimes big sisters did too. She didn't like that too much

Beings that I'm a big sister--I can relate much more then she knows. LOL
Father God, its gonna be a busy day, and I'd really appreciate it if Kaylin was NOT cranky today. I ask for you to allow me to be patient with the kids as we get ready for church. And that I would find spiritual food to chew on for church this week
.
I ask today too that you would help me NOT to criticize the way that Rob does things. His way may be different--but at least he trys. So please forgive me for my critical spirit, and allow me to move on.
I love you, in your Sons name, Amen
