Today is way better than yesterday, probably because we haven't left the house!
We had a fun morning, playing and singing:
 |
| Ellie in Noah's hand me downs, she needs a bow! |
 |
| We're singing, singing, singing!! |
 |
| My handsome boy. |
I cut corners yesterday and bought frozen bread dough instead of homemade, to make a bread spider for the Halloween/ Birthday party Saturday night. The kids were so crazy at the store, I just grabbed all the refrigerated groceries out, and left the rest for the husband to carry in. Or, at least, I thought I did....I forgot to have him gather the rest of the bags last night. Frozen bread dough in my trunk thaws, and rises...and rises...and rises...and POPS! out of the package. Thankfully, it was in it's own shopping bag and didn't create too much of a mess. Next time I think I will forgo the laziness, and bring all the bags in myself. Guess I am making it from scratch after all!
Thought for the day:
"When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not shouting "I'm clean livin'."
I'm whispering "I was lost,
Now I'm found and forgiven."
When I say... "I am a Christian"
I don't speak of this with pride.
I'm confessing that I stumble
and need Christ to be my guide.
When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not trying to be strong.
I'm professing that I'm weak
And need His strength to carry on.
When I say. "I am a Christian"
I'm not bragging of success.
I'm admitting I have failed
And need God to clean my mess.
When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not claiming to be perfect,
My flaws are far too visible
But, God believes I am worth it.
When I say... "I am a Christian"
I still feel the sting of pain.
I have my share of heartaches
So I call upon His name.
When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not holier than thou,
I'm just a simple sinner
Who received God's good grace, somehow."
