A Day in My Life

Today was a crazy day. We are juggling cross country, soccer, and football, along with everything else that goes on in our household. Here's a glimpse of my day...

-Groan because my alarm clock went off at 6:20 a.m.
-Wake up my son...and then off to get ready
-Wake up my youngest daughter at 6:57 a.m.
-Get yelled at for waking her up 3 minutes early
-Make "cold oatmeal" (YUCK!) for my daughter
-Fixed her hair while she ate oatmeal
-Picked oatmeal out of her hair
-Fought for room in the bathroom to brush my teeth
-Finally got out of the house and off to work
-Spent my day at work...then came home to meet my kids off the bus since my husband got called in to work
-Got a contract for an article in the mail (Yippee!)
-Finished work, checked homework, and taught my son how to mop the floor
-Gave out unlimited TV night for his willingness to help clean
-Picked up my oldest daughter from cross country
-Turned around to get the book she forgot in her locker
-Got home just as my son was leaving for football
-Made omelets for my girls for dinner
-Made myself a healthy chicken wrap
-Burned the chicken wrap while trying to correct algebra homework at the same time
-Took my youngest to soccer practice
-Went to the grocery store during practice
-Helped my oldest daughter with English homework during practice
-Worked on my worship devotional for Sunday during practice
-Came home to realize I forgot to tape Survivor
-Helped my daughter study for a health test
-Made my son a dinner of pizza rolls (healthy, I know!)
-Watched my dog bite my son's nose trying to get the pizza rolls
-Collected massive amounts of laundry from every room in the house
-Tucked in 3 kiddos
-Sat down to the computer to check email/facebook and write this!!!
-Now I'm off to balance the checkbook and then spend time in God's Word!!!

I am so grateful to be blessed with the opportunity to raise my kids. My life was simply boring before them!
