laundry, oh my!!!

I am sorry again that I have not updated lately!! The days go by so quickly. I have gotten a couple of substitute jobs at 2 different pre-schools. On the days that I work I end up behind on just about everything. I am starting to realize though that even when I do stay on top of everything the dirty clothes return the next day again and the dust bunnies still hang out under my chairs. I hope that I am becoming more tolerant of my own short comings.
We took the girls to a beautiful Ethiopian choir concert on Saturday night. It was good to see friends from our yahoo group there. Deanna sang and I was so touched by her love of the Lord and how it came out in her voice. Evie enjoyed seeing her daughters and we hope to see them again soon.
Mazie got to go to school on Monday. The 1 pre-school that I worked at allowed her to join the 2 year old class for the morning. She had so much fun and now talks about "her school." When I was done I went to get her and I hugged on her and cried. She gave me those special pats on my neck and allowed me to hold her close. You see we prayed and waited so long for our girls and I all of the sudden felt like our time was going to fly by and I may forget all these sweet times. Lord, please let me remember to enjoy the quiet every day things. All too soon the children will be grown.
