Perspective

It's kind of a rough day today for our family. I realized that I was letting myself get caught up in the unfairness of the situation, and I was focusing on the wrong things. Life might not always be fair or right or good. But I serve an amazing God, whose plan is always better than my own. He has given me an amazing husband and incredible kids. What more could I ask for?

So here's a little bit of my perspective for today. I will be posting more later today, so stay tuned.

VBS

We visited another church this week for VBS. Our church is having a 5 week VBS this year, and I wanted the kids to experience a weeklong one. We all had a blast. This VBS was held at Green Valley Baptist Church. They had over 300 kids in attendance! They also had a VBS for Mom's to attend while the kids were in class. I really enjoyed that and made a lot of new friends.

More fun at the pool

I know it's been a while since we've given you some pictures to look at. We've actually taken quite a few recently, but we've been having so much fun making picture worthy memories that we haven't taken the time to share them with you.

We've been going down to the pool pretty much every chance we get. The kids are completely confident now (sometimes too confident), which makes it a lot more fun.

Laura has been at her homeschool convention yesterday and today, so I got to take the kids by myself both days. I forgot to take the camera yesterday, but since we finally found a deal on a new camera, I wasn't going to forget to play with the new toy.

Poor Baby

Poor little Megan had such a rough day. She woke up at 5:40am, needing her sheets and blankets changed out. I took care of her, and put her back to bed. Ten minutes later, she was screaming again. Her breathing was bad, so I gave her a treatment on her nebulizer. Didn't bother putting her back to bed after that because her meds always hype her up...no way would she sleep anyways. She was playing in the living room, and not a half hour later, she threw up all over the couch.

VBS

VBS started last night! Our church is doing it a bit differently this year, and is having it for 5 consecutive Wednesday nights.

Yesterday morning, I stopped by the church and picked up the kids t-shirts. I bought Megan a bigger one so that I could cut it up and turn it into a cute dress. And this is where the drama began...
