Sunday

First day of 9 am church.  I love church at 9 am because the kids are happier during church and there is a possibility they will take naps after church.

Hayes starts negotiating on the way TO church about if he has to take a nap AFTER church.

If I have a good attitude, I don't have to take a rest, right?

We'll see bud.

I won't even whine or throw a fit all day.

and then after church on the way home it starts all over again. Today he won out and we decided he could skip a nap this Sunday.

We got home and ate lunch and it was decided that I had a bad attitude. I am like a little kid in that if I get tired I can just FEEL myself getting ornery. Bracken forgo taking a nap and stayed up with the non-napping kids.

So I took a nap.

for THREE Hours.

it was awesome.

and I had a much better attitude when I woke up. Thank you.

Here is a quote I love...since it's Sunday

"It is easy in the world to live after the world's opinion; it is easy in solitude to live after our own; but the great man is he who in the midst of the crowd keeps with perfect sweetness the independence of solitude." -Ralph Waldo Emerson.

 When our kids get older I'm going to frame it by the door so they see it when they leave.

I also back posted about Thanksgiving today. You can read it here.
