25 Random Thoughts on this rainy day

Extremely random thoughts all swirling around in my head at the same time...don't you wish you were me?

  1. I miss my camera. Daily I would reach for it to snap pictures of my growing brood...and I wonder if I should pay to repair the lens or just buy a new one. Will it be the same camera when the lens is repaired?
  2. Why is it that my four year old son can be standing on top of something and never find it while my 2 year old daughter can find something downstairs, two rooms away and buried under couch cushions?
  3. I really should go dig out our snow clothes for the youth ski trip tonight.
  4. Sometimes I miss the days of sleeping in, reading books till all hours of the night and eating junk food for lunch.
  5. On the food note -- I miss chicken too!
  6. I'm feeling convicted to keep Andrew in worship with us but can't get him to sit still for five minutes at a meal.
  7. Sometimes a homemade chocolate chip cookie makes the day so much brighter.
  8. Why is there a roll on the floor under the table?
  9. And why don't I have a canine vacuum cleaner?
  10. There was a Sunday School coloring project in my freezer this morning.
  11. Can a woman drown in dirty laundry?
  12. There are two marbles, a lego, candy hearts, some loose change and two receipts in my pocket right now. Oh, and a pacifier.
  13. Still chuckling over the episode of "The Office" last night.
  14. Does eating Gobstopper Cookies at 11 am count as breakfast?
  15. I still have a gift certificate to CBD to spend...the problem, it's not enough for my ever growing wish list.
  16. In all things, moderation, except books!
  17. How can I quickly defrost a ham?
  18. I'm not really fond of my new haircut.
  19. My children make me laugh (daily!)
  20. WOW! I need to find the broom and sweep before the day is done.
  21. its hard to type onehanded
  22. my children make me laugh -- daily!
  23. I would love a Sonic cherry vanilla Dr Pepper right about now!
  24. "Do everything without arguing..." -- this song keeps running through my head.
  25. Jesus paid the ultimate sacrifice for me, for me -- How cool!

Oh... my goodness...that is a lot of swirling. How'd that ski trip go? Have you ever read Treasuring God in our Traditions? Great book - the appendix has a good read about children in worship - something like 'The Family: Together in God's Presence'. You might find the article somewhere on the Desiring God website - It's written by Noel Piper. Wouldn't it be amazing to be close enough to share books.
