Ahhh…. Saturday; and yet, no rest for the weary!
This morning started bright and early for James and the boys. East Side Baptist Church was having their monthly men’s prayer breakfast and they were planning to attend. At 6:45 AM James rolled out of bed and I got the three boys up at 7:15. They left at about 7:40 and Gaelin and Elizabeth woke up shortly thereafter. I tried to get those two still tired little ones to go back to sleep. Then I gave up and got them in bed with me and we snuggled for a little bit. That didn’t work either, so a little while later we were all up. I let them watch a video for a little bit and then we ate breakfast.
Today it seemed hotter here than it has been. It is probably because it was much more humid. When the boys got home they all went back outside and started to play, with frequent trips in and out for drinks. I was able to get a little school work from Friday gone over with James and John. Then I got their lesson plans made out for Monday.
We all ate leftovers from the hay ride meal last night for lunch today up at the classroom building. It was fun to sit around and visit with everyone again. Our boys are loving having kids their age with whom to play. James even played soccer with some kids and didn’t do too badly, either! The kids ended up taking naps and it rained for a little while this afternoon.
Tonight all my men had haircuts. It is always nice to have that job done so I don’t have to do it again for several weeks. Gaelin hates sitting for them but he is one of the ones who needs them the most. They were so dirty from playing outside that it left dirt caked between my fingers after I was done! Yuck! It must have been from the hay ride last night with all the flying dust and them sitting right in it’s path. But it was still gross! It’s a good thing it was bath night!
