hodge podge

Yesterday I barely had a moment to breathe, moving from one thing to the next and back again. I was prepared for it so I did it without frustration, perhaps there is a light at the end of the tunnel...it can be done. Despite my victory yesterday, it was nice to wake up this morning and find there was nothing I had to do and no overwhelming feelings I had to battle. Well, that's not completely true.

At a long YW meeting yesterday I was told that our presidency would be reorganized very soon due to an unforeseen move. I was so taken off guard, we all work so well together and I'm certainly not ready to walk away from my calling or the girls even though it's a lot of work. Of course I'm in no way prepared for the alternative so my heart has been kind of heavy the last 24 hours considering what will come of this. I feel pretty sure nothing will happen until the end of summer, but no matter the outcome I'm certain it will be for the best.



Tess gave these drawings to me Monday after she ripped them from her journal/notebook. On the left is a picture of her favorite thing to do...playing in the playhouse (see her there sliding) and the other one (right) is of her on the porch in the front yard. I was actually quite impressed with the details she drew accurately and delighted at the proof it gave me that our "Disneyland" in the backyard is a hit. I only wish she hadn't ripped them out.





And since I'm sharing art I thought I would share a few of Megan's. She did both of them at school last week. She calls them "duckie" and "3 little chicks in water".

Oh and this is the condition in which I write (couldn't help but take it...courtesy phone)



Megan on my lap some where between conscious and unconsciousness. I suppose it's Megan time.

Have a great day.

Sweet pictures by your girls. I love children's art! And, by the way, I hope you know how lucky you are that Megan can fall asleep anywhere! Your pictures of her crazy sleep locations are among my favorite!

I think that 3 Chicks in Water is frameable!
