One eventful day…

I thrive on days like today. I don’t know why, but I do. Maybe it is the challenge?  Maybe I’m just crazy? I’ll go with the latter.

 

This morning started with a trip to the dentist office. THE trip to the dentist office. I was told three hours total and I’d have my boys back. Four and a half hours later, they arrive with their shiny new gear. Aren’t they handsome? They look great and seemed pretty proud. I, only slightly disappointed in half a day gone from home, resolved to get right home and tackle the day. Laundry, dinner, school still loomed.

Got home and Lydia was crying. Jess said she had been crying a lot so I put her on my back in the Ergo, that always makes her happy.;) Then Franz called and they had animal feed for me…now…by 4pm. I made arrangements to leave…again. Then a phone call that our little doeling we sold yesterday was refusing to eat and she needed to come back to mamma, she was getting weak. We met at Franz and I got animal feed and a doeling. I got home, ran her out to the barn and she nursed well,  regaining strength.

I went in my house. Jess had started dinner, Yay Jess! I  threw Lydia on my back again, finished making  kombucha, did a couple dishes and someone yelled that Elijah threw up on the couch. This is where things got fuzzy. I got him in the bathroom where he threw up again several times, dinner was burning, I ran to pull it out, I came back to Elijah. Just as I bent over Lydia threw up all over my back, my hair, herself and the floor.  Sigh. I love my family. Thankful for the excitement the Lord throws into our life and thankful for days like this that keep me young.
