Reflections on the Day for November 7, 2008.
Typical wet fall day in Portland.
Plans for today – We Have Little Flowers this morning. Tonight is “pizza night”.
I am wearing – Cream top and brown pants. I need to get my shoes on soon.
I am feeling – Sleepy, I had a strange dream that we were selling our house. Most of our neighborhood had been leveled and we needed to go somewhere else.
I am hearing – Almost nothing, the computer is humming and Christopher is trying to convince Sarah to get out of my bed and eat breakfast.
I am thankful for – Kyle being home! Even if he does have to go back again, it was nice to get him back so soon.
In prayer – Our nation, my grandmother.
The Children:
Ashley – I wish she would remember to ask for things more than 12 hours before she needs them.
Rachel – She turns 15 this weekend. Holy Cow!
Christopher – Is a funny kid. He is good at getting the dog to do what he wants.
Hannah – Is very excited for Little Flowers today.
Joshua – Is starting off on kind of a bad foot this morning. I will be glad when he gets over this phase.
Sarah – Snuk into my bed last night. Silly little bed bug.
The Homefires:
Kitchen – Pizza night! woot!
Craft-room – There is a bit of sewing I am getting to and I need to take my machine in for its tune-up.
Music – Here is that lovely version of the Ave Maria by Caccini I found the other day on the Anchoress
Lucky Room of the Day – The bathroom.
My pleasant thought for the Day –
“Joy is not in things; it is in us”
Richard Wagner
