Got Toooooo Much To Do!!!

I've got soooo much to do, I should be getting it done, or at least starting to get it all done, but I heard a voice that said, "It's more important to read my Word. That other stuff can wait!" I am thinking, I've got laundry, unload the dishwasher, reload it, clean some stones, put away some cereal, pick up the downstairs, the list goes on.... The voice said, "Sit down and read My Word." I said, But God, I've gotta get it done, or at least get it started! We didn't get school done this morning due to another headache, I NEED to start it so we can do some school when Kotah wakes up! The Voice said, "What's more important, clean house, or reading My Word?" Wow, ok, you're right God! (as if He didn't know that already!!!) But seriously, how many times do we put off doing our devotion's or reading His Word because we have to get one more load of laundry in, or unload the dishwasher, pick up some toys... One thing leads to another, and by that time, it is either time for the kids to wake up, pick them up from school, make dinner... I'll be the 1st one to admit that I've done that, but I've been doing sooo much better! I'll put the kids down for a nap, and then do my devo's and Bible reading. Plus, I don't know about you, but when I get done reading His Word, I feel so much more refreshed and ready to tackle anything that comes my way! Like cleaning the toilets, yuck... (or cleaning up butt powder.... ;o) ) Reminds me of the verse in Philippians 2:14 (say it with me, I KNOW you know it!!!) Do EVERYTHING with OUT complaining or arguing!!!!! (The cap's are my version and the !!!!)
So now, I must go tackle the start of cleaning, unloading, reloading, picking up..... House cleaning here we come!!!! (I also put in the Skillet or Disciple cd, makes it sooo much fun to clean to those awesome cd's!!!! :O) )

Cancelled

What a busy crazy day! Curt left right away this morning around 7 to get his blood taken.  He got back and then Audrey got here.  We played and picked up for a bit then left to go to the Health Department to get our TB test done.  We got there around 10ish and they told us we needed to make an appointment.  So we waited for a bit to make an appointment.  Thankfully they had an opening for today yet.  They only do these tests on Friday, so we really didn't want to have to wait until next Friday if at all possible.  Got an appointment for 1:15 and 1:30.  I was thinking ugh, either no nap and very little nap, but I didn't care!  ;) Got home, cleaned up a bit more, got the kiddos some lunch, then we turned around and left to go back to the Health Department.  (I did NOT see the water guy! ;)) Got back there, got asked some questions, wanted to know why I need the test...  I said adoption.  They saw all the other 5 kids and as...

Run-Aways

Wow, this has seriously been an eventful week! Starting off with the whole fabric softener mis-hap, which you can read on here if you didn't see or hear about it! Then Curt left Monday nite, Tuesday, well, it was ok, we had mom's group and the kids were acting up a bit, but nothing too bad... Then Wednesday I had a meeting at the church... It started out ok, the meeting wasn't long at all! Gavin came into the room and said he wanted to go play outside on the playground. I told him no, because I couldn't see him. I said, what if someone came by and picked you up and grabbed you and took you somewhere? Mommy would never see you again and I would be soooo sad! I said, I can't see you, so you need to stay inside. Well, not more than 3 minutes passed and Kotah comes up to me and says, uh, mom, Gavin is trying to go outside. So, I get up, go over to him and talk. I asked him what is he doing? he says, I WANT to play OUTSIDE! I said, bubby, I can't see you, so you can...

Update on Dad...

Mom called a little while ago. Dad will be admitted, they aren't sure yet what caused the pain. He had fever, but it now is broken. He is also a little jaundice, so that is why they were/are thinking that his stent moved... They had to poke him 3 different times to try and get an IV in, his veins were so tight because he was in so much pain, he was tensing up. They took some blood from both arms and are still waiting on the results of that. They also did a chest x-ray. So still waiting, but atleast he isn't in any pain. The gave him a shot of morphine to take care of the pain, and it finally worked.
