Surprise Me: Day 7/30


My friend Kevin went to church with us this morning.  He has recently moved to my side of town and is looking for a church home.  It was nice to have him there.  It was a very good service - good worship and good message - very creatively delivered.  Apparently it wasn't intersesting to everyone...Isaac fell asleep on my lap - he who never sleeps :)  He looked like an angel for about 30 minutes.  That was a surprise in itself!

We got home after church and all of us were exhausted.  The kids laid down to watch some TV and I pushed past that exhaustion and cleaned the house.  It's such a stress reliever for me and actually energized me.  I felt better when I was done.  :)

My mom called and said she would be down to visit around 5pm and would stay to visit with the kids and I until tomorrow evening.  She got to town and we went to dinner and spent the evening hanging out with the kids.  I jumped on the trampoline with them....that's always fun.  When the kids went to bed, my mom and I had a very difficult conversation - the subject of which has been eating away at me for months.  What I had to say was very well received and I feel a load off of my mind, and I have a new direction for things that I knew I needed to do differently.  I didn't expect this positive response.  Thank You, God....for surprising me. :)
