spaceyWhat we "weird" Christian, Attached, Homeschooling Moms say: "What a blessing today is! Sam was up bright and early and we've begun learning for the day! The Lord has Created another beautiful day for us to enjoy, the leaves are covered in a delicate layer of frost & everything's glistening in the early morning sun. The splendor of God's Kingdom is awesome. I can't wait to go outside to day and take a nice long walk with our nature bags & granola bars!"
And on some mornings...this is what we really mean: "Good Lord Child...God hasn't even turned on the lights yet! And its so darned early that the energy saver on the furnace hasn't even kicked in... I want to go back under the covers. OK... lets get this stupid cloth (who the heck's idea was this anyhow?) diaper changed...I love coming into contact with pee 6 or 8 times a day, WHY can't I see the snaps on this thing....OK, Diaper changed, wetbag nowhere to be found, pants back on, Your Elmo video is calling you kid...you like Elmo... right? 30 minutes later, I figure out the high chair, how to put the nipple on his bottle and that the reason I can't see is that my glasses are not on...And oh...JOY! Jonah's awake! Watching Spongebob...and Daniel is missing...There is no way I'm opening Auntie Boo's door until her boys are awake...so Daniel is MIA for half an hour...and good thing the sun has STARTED to come up....Daniel is not in there....hmmm, I've got a missing child and its not even 7 a.m. yet....OK...He's in my bed... not sure how I missed that, oh, no glasses & getting hit in the head with a sleeve of Ritz crackers might have had something to do with it... There is no way in heck we are going for our nature walk today...ITS COLD out there! In fact...we're not going anywhere today...Daddy has the van in the auto shop at school....YAY...today is going to be a good day and I am so blessed to be awake to witness the sun rising....and the furnace kick out of energy saver mode...and I need to rewind Elmo.
