daddy

we have the best daddy here at our house!! he is the most amazing man!! i confess i feel like he got a little cheated out on his celebration, but thankfully he still feels blessed!!!

let me tell you about him...

he is out of bed everymorning at 5:30. he has quiet time, exercises, and sits quietly! if the kids get up he helps with their breakfast. he always makes sure there is a cup of coffee for me!!

he comes home for lunch almost every day! while home he patiently endurese the 50,ooo questions the kids ask him and most days is talked into a game of some kind.

he often sends me emails just to say he loves me.

he comes home again at 5:00 and enjoys dinner as a family. although he doesn't do bath time, he plays more games, helps with bedtime, and reads to the kids. he loves to just sit on the couch with me at night and listen to me. he will help with projects i'm working on and rarely leaves me a to do list!

he plays everything from army men to strawberry shortcake, he can shoot marbles with mapboy and paint princesses toes!!

he is a man of honesty, character, devotion, and most of all love for his family!! the kids adore him and watch at the door for his arrival home!

he is more than i ever dreamed i'd have and i love him!!!

the "calling"

okay - so it's been awhile since i've ranted...and it's time! it is beautiful outside and i'm sitting inside my makeshift office at the church. i am lucky enough to have a door that opens to the outside so it is wide open and i'm loving that. but as i'm working here today i feel the need to rant so enjoy.... being in my position i often have to ask people to help out. you know, volunteer to teach or work in the nursery or teach or hang out with the kids, you know - volunteer! i love all the responses i get. i am particularly fond of the "i don't like kids one" - it doesn't go over real well with me when they have 3 of their own. hmm??? but the one that really gets my goat is the "i don't feel called to that." argh...really!?!?!!?!? well, i didn't feel called to wipe my kids bottoms either, but it is a good thing i did it anyways. surprisingly, everyone feels called to the waterpark though! now, let me back up a ...
