Ramblings on a Friday

Wanted to write something today.  No idea what.  Feeling very tired this morning.  It's gonna be a busy weekend, too!  Starting with a girl's night out tonight to make cards.  I LOVE making cards.  The thought of doing it uninterrupted (except for the girl talk, of course) sounds heavenly.

Jonathan is on worship team all weekend.  While I fully support him in this, and pray for him constantly while he is on team, I still am stuck alone with the kids for the majority of the weekend.  It turns out to be a long weekend...God is gracious, though.  The kids and I usually find something to occupy our time together, so I shouldn't complain too much.  They are growing up so fast, too!  Emma will be 4 in a few weeks and Aidan will be 7!!!  No more little boy...just all boy.  YIKES!

In other news, I will be taking 6 girls (15-17yrs old) to Paris in 2012 - My Ranger group.  (Girl Guides)  We had our parent meeting last night.  The three that showed up are signed up and ready to fundraise.  Hubby is really excited at the prospect of me leaving for 10 days.  Of course my Mom will be around this time, so that should go better.  He can at least take breaks.  It's good for him, too!  I think they all really had fun last time, though they wouldn't admit it, lest I do it again!!

I will leave you with a song today.  I recently purchased the new Chris Tomlin CD.  I love his stuff.  Anyway, here's one of my favorites off this album.  I hope you all have a lovely weekend!!

Tuesday Tunes 69: Stolen

I am feeling so down today.  Stressed out.  Tired.  Worn out.

Anyway, the weather is finally getting warmer, sunnier and less snowy.  That should help a bit.

Also, my new class at Women of Heart is going REALLY well.  I thought I would take a break from Beth Moore.  So, I am taking a course about our Identity in Christ.  So far it has challenged me to change some of my bad habits to more godly habits and to rekindle those dreams that I may have pushed down because of life's circumstances.  Daring to dream again is an amazing thing.  I think I have stopped dreaming for myself.  I am a stay-at-home mom.  What dreams can I possibly acheive in this position?  Anyway, I will keep you updated...

The other news is that we have registered Aidan in soccer for the spring.  He is going to do the skills option (2 practices a week with no games) and then they have 2 Fun Festivals (mini tournament things)!  He is quite excited.

Emma has been having a tough time lately.  She has been crying and clingy at Preschool and also bedtime.  So strange.  I guess she is just having a moment in her development.  It's okay.  I am sure it will pass.

As it is Tuesday, I thought I would post a video for today.  Here's a song that has been going through my head lately...Enjoy!
