I have found a verse that I need! In my Bible study we are trying to find Bible verses that correspond to our specific prayer requests. I've been looking for days! I found one that speaks directly to one of mine, here it is...
"But all these things that I once thought very worthwhile-now I've thrown them all away so that I can put my trust and hope in Christ alone.....no longer counting on being saved by being good enough or by obeying God's laws, but by trusting Christ to save me, for God's way of making us right with himself depends on faith-counting on Christ alone." Philippians 3:7-9
I have the hardest time concentrating on the Bible or anything for that matter when the boys are awake. They keep me very busy, especially with husband being out of town. When he is away and I get to feel what it's really like to be a single mom, I gain such compassion for those women. How in the world do they do it? If you know one, give her a break, a hug, or a babysitter. Don't bother buying her books or bubble bath because she will never use them.
It has gone well this time though, with him being away. We went to Nana's house on Monday and went swimming. On Tuesday the boys went to the park with Nana. Tuesday night we had our last VBS meeting before the actual VBS. I stayed for 2 hours but skipped out at the end. The boys were with a new sitter and I was worried. I showed up and son #2 has obviously soiled his clothes because he is wearing this way-to-tight red onesie and his tennis shoes.I'm laughing now at the mental picture. He was walking around with that big belly sticking out and that red shirt stretched tight over it. It pulled down at his neck so the collar was a bit stretched out, man I wish I would have taken a picture. It was hilarious. Son#1 loved Sara the babysitter and has asked to go see her everyday since. I'll have to check her availability, this could be a very good thing.
Wednesday we went to church, Diesel got to see Sara, it was still light afterwards so we played on the playground for a little while. This morning we left to do our recycling, go to the dump and to take in our first trip to the city's Farmer's Market, but it hasn't started yet! The information I got last fall said "Farmer's Market-every Tuesday and Friday June-September." Now, to me (being a stickler for details) this means it should be up and running June 3rd, the first Tuesday in June. But evidently the event organizers just meant they start up some time in June. They should really be more specific, for people like me. But we got stopped at the train crossing which was great for Diesel, so I turned the car off and we watched and waited. We ran our other errands and then played in the sunshine at home through our normal nap time. This actually worked out well because both boys were so tired they went down easily and son #2 actually fell asleep without me beside him!
