Another Daybook Entry

Outside my window...a rainy fall day. This is the kind of day I long for our home in Camden because it had a screened in porch. I was too busy with a 1 yr old to really enjoy it, I sure would enjoy it today.

I am thinking...That this rainy day has given me a headache and I want it to go away!

I am thankful for...my husband. My heart is so full of love for him today.

I am wearing...Strangely enough the same shirt I was wearing last week when I did this, but this time I'm wearing it with gray sweatpants that have a hole in the most inappropriate place.

I am creating...the program for the state Minister's Wives Conference. This is one of my most favorite days of the year. I'm so fortunate to be a part of the leadership team.

I am going...grocery shopping today! Woo-Hoo! I'm coming home with butter, bread and oil. Staples that we've been out of for longer than I care to share.

I am reading...The Brotherhood (Precinct 11) by Jerry Jenkins. Chapter 3 made me cry until I had mascara running down my chin. That man can write.

I am hoping...I can come across some pumpkin spice k-cups for my keurig. I can't get to Little Rock to get some before Monday. I don't know that I can last the weekend.

I am hearing...ok, so this is the reason I posted this daybook today. Daniel has begun singing the All in the Family theme song just like Edith Bunker. It makes me laugh so hard. Daniel is my funniest child so I sound biased, but this. This is golden, I don't care who you are.

Around the house...It's pretty clean. We had surprise overnight guests Tuesday night which required me to do some fast-action cleaning. And it has been sustained.

One of my favorite things...Pumpkin spice coffee for my Keurig. (When I say my, I really mean Stephen's)

A few plans for the rest of the week...Planning a campout for Daniel & David for their last requirement for their Arrow of Light award in Cub Scouts.

**I'm having trouble loading Daniel singing the song. I hope to get it on here though. So check back!

All Aboard The Birthday Polar Express

Can you believe Henry Patton will be 4 years old tomorrow?! Neither can we. We celebrated his birthday last weekend with his first all boy party, polar express style. I had so much fun preparing for it, as you can probably tell! My mother who is never at a loss for words said it looked like Polar Express threw up in my house. She was SO right and we loved it! We had a breakfast pajama party with 7 three and four year old boys. It was such a fun time. I had his pajamas monogrammed with a train and his name. He loved them and I liked how they sort of looked like the ones on the movie. Henry loved all the bells I had everywhere. There is no doubt we believe at this house. We had the jingle loud and proud! I had his invitation made from a shop on Etsy and I was very pleased with them. One of his little friends came to the door ready for me to punch his ticket. It was so cute. I ran to get a hole punch and punched it for him. Every good party has to have go

Meet Shaun

This is my single co-worker and church friend, Shaun. He and I have so much fun bantering back and forth. He takes what I dish out and scoops it right back up and hands it back to me. He is a keeper for that and many other reasons, which I will share on this post. He was kind enough to allow me to highlight him on Kelly’s Korner http://www.kellyskornerblog.com/ for her singles link up. His last words to me about this were, “ This better not be an embarrassment! ” I trust I will do my best to make it not be, but I make no promises! The first thing you need to know about Shaun is that he loves Jesus and the Boston Red Sox . He asked Jesus into his heart at age 8 and is still seeking and serving him today at age 26. Shaun graduated from Arkansas State University with a degree in digital media and design. When he is not busy creating masterpieces for our customers he is hiking, watching the Red Sox , playing basketball, horsing around at the lake or beach, and watching movies. He is fu

He's home!

I know you didn't know my dear husband was out of town. I decided not to post such information. I get scared enough as it is, I sure didn't want to advertise the information. Yes, you read correctly, I get scared. Before we had children, and well, even after Samuel was born, I would stay with a friend of mine when Stephen was gone overnight. When we moved from that town I didn't have anyone to stay with, so I would just sit up and watch tv all night. Fear kept me awake. Isn't that silly? Well, it didn't seem so at the time, but when I look back on it now it seems silly. That is until I have to be without a manly-man in the house. I'm telling you what, I hear every noise, sound, creak, croak. It's awful. Sunday night (the first night) while I was lying AWAKE in my bed I was praying and telling God that I knew He didn't want me to be fearful and that I knew there were many verses in the Bible that told of His being with me at nighttime . I just couldn'
