I'm exhausted...but my son smiled for 5 hours straight tonight.
I have dishes in my sink....but my little girl prayed out loud before bedtime.
My veggie garden needs desperate attention....but we played in a pumpkin patch this weekend.
Simon needed abdominal x-rays after school today....but he flirted with the secretaries and told secrets to his bunny rabbit friend.
Dan and I have the noisiest house on the block tonight....but the kids played chase tag forever with no injuries!
I Still have paperwork to finish from my job tonight... but we read a new book with the kids.
I should be catching up on all of my to do's right now....but instead, I'm content,
And once again - counting my blessings. Amen
That's just so sweet, Liz. :)
ReplyDeleteI Meant To Do My Work Today

I meant to do my work today,
But a brown bird sang in the apple tree,
And a butterfly flitted across the field,
And all the leaves were calling me.
And the wind went sighing over the land,
Tossing the grasses to and fro,
And a rainbow held out its shining hand--
So what could I do but laugh and go?
