Mother's Day

We wound up getting ready really fast this morning, and we were able to make it to the 8:00 service (at 8:10).  Pretty good considering it takes us 25 minutes to get to church, and Seth didn't get out of bed until 7:20.  I didn't even get up until 7.  We took the kids to worship with us.  Hannah sang her heart out.  She was reading the words and singing them loudly.  It was probably close to the most precious thing I've ever seen.  I had brought coloring books for them to do while the sermon happened, and in the middle of the sermon Hannah had to go to the bathroom.  We were coming back in, and I stood at the back closing the door quietly.  I turned around to go and follow Hannah into the back row, where we were sitting, I saw she had walked down 3 or 4 rows to sit down.  The people around there knew where we were sitting, apparently, and were trying to direct her to the correct row.  I whispered for her, and she came back to our row.  There was a guy in a wheelchair at the end of our row.  Somewhere between leaving our row, and using the bathroom, she forgot where we were sitting.  Not embarrassing at all.  :)  We went to Sunday school, then did the nursery.  Oh my word.  We had children barely three.  I am so grateful for the behavior of my children.  Wow.

My husband took me to a restaurant with little waiting after church, so we got a great lunch out.  Again, my children acted perfectly!  I am such a thankful mommy!! They sat and ate, and weren't loud.  They didn't even seem inconvenienced by sitting there and eating.  It was a great lunch (and dessert :) ).

We ate leftovers for supper, and the kids went down on time tonight.  It was a great day.  I wish we could do it all over again tomorrow.  Of course, I'm a mommy, so I get to do this every day.
