Sunday Wisdom

Howdy. I am feeling a little Aggie today, as in agricultural. What with taking a moment to tell you about Reece chomping on zinnias and Avery sitting contently for almost an hour and hulling purple hull peas.

I hope you are having a lovely Sunday. On the way home from church today, Caleb asked McClaine what he learned about.

"God, Jesus and Pirates." Excellent.

Then Avery chimed in and told Caleb that he needed to stop and get the mail and when Caleb told her that the mailman didn't bring mail on Sunday, she asked why.

"Well," Caleb replied, "God worked hard for 6 days and then he took the day off..."

"Dad, I already know that," she snapped.

"Oh really, what did God do on the 7th day?" Caleb challenged.

"Well He didn't deliver the mail!"

In my fervent attempt to minimize the number of children in diapers in my household, I decided this weekend to start potty training Audrey while toughin' it out with McClaine. Then she peed on the floor twice and on Oma and Opa's couch. Hmmm. Maybe she's not quite ready to pull the trigger yet.

And you certainly remember me telling you about the many jars of peach preserves that we came home to? Yes, I have managed to eat three pieces of buttered toast with this smeared all over it every morning this week.I also find that a delightful way to finish off each day is with a big bowl of Blue Bell Homemade Vanilla and sliced peaches.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I finally finished putting away all the laundry from our trip to Colorado yesterday...

and then began taking it out again to pack for our trip to the Ft. Davis Mountains for Bloys' Camp Meeting.

I love Camp Meeting.

The minor problem now is that I have to pack for 6 people and 2 seasons because you never know what the weather is going to do. I have resolved to put an end to the once a year fashion show because it just isn't practical to change every child and myself three times a day. That and the fact that this buttered toast with Peach goodness only allows a select number of my outfits to fit!!!
