That's my boy...Momma Kims boy!
Monday, another busy day!!! Oops, let’s jump back to Sunday.
Sunday…Church in the morning and we had an awesome service! Later on, I cut Sean and Laura’s hair. Of course there was a funny along the way. I was cutting Sean’s hair and he could NOT be still. He was spinning in the chair…making goofy sounds, making up songs and just goofing off. I of course said over and over, “Be still…stop spinning…Be STILL”. He laughed every time I said it. Finally I said, “Where is my shy little boy that at one time said very little”? He said, “He is gone…He has grown into the ‘man’ I have become”! He Is 11!!!!! Man? What??? I laughed my head off and then some! Oh, he SO has his dad’s personality!
Sean had a baseball game at 6pm... on SUNDAY! I've never heard of that! Anyway, poor little guys, they really don’t have a good team. However, we sat there for 2 hours cheering them on like they were in the major league! Sean struck out his first time at bat (which I think the Ump was making bad calls) The second time at bat he was walked to 1st. Then he stole 2nd…3rd…and HOME!!!!! He is little…but he is FAST! Also, he caught a ball and made and OUT! Way to go Sean!
Back to today, Monday….It started by taking Marissa to get a gift for a friends birthday party. Of course we had to get a Webkins! So the first stop was Hallmark for the Webkins and then off to the party. Then we dropped stuff off at our storage building. Then we went to Knob Noster to meet my brother-in-law. Then to Lowe’s…then Wal-Mart…then to pick Marissa up from the party. Ok, so now we are back at home doing lots of ‘stuff’.
Late afternoon we started refinishing a bed I bought for Sean. OK, I LOVE bargains! I paid $10 for a headboard and footboard. Some people see stuff as “junk” but I always see the potential. It was in good condition, just needed a little love like; sanding and staining. We started sanding and of course there are little spindal like things that are hard to sand. So I sent Larry to Lowe’s to look for something to assist us in sanding those areas. He called from Lowe’s and told me about a sander that is different than the one we already have. YEAH!!!! I got a new sander with all kinds of attachments! I was SO excited! I know that my friend Amy is rolling her eyes and saying, “Oh brother”! I LOVE tools! Larry told me one time that he loves me but he really married me for my tool box that was filled with a hammer, a drill, drill bits, etc. etc. etc. He also jokes and tells his buddies that he married me for my tools and my deep fryer. (You know the ones that you deep fry a turkey or fish in) OK Amy, enough about tools!
I cooked dinner and the kids of course stuffed themselves. (They only get home cooked meals at our house.) Then the kids took their normal positions either on the computer or in front of the TV. Larry and I continued to work. Larry began to bush hog some of the field behind our house and I used the big mower to cut the field to the north side of our house. I love to cut grass. It’s time all to myself, to think, pray or just sing my heart out.
OK, time has passed and the kids are in the bed. Well, they are on the air mattress in the basement and glued to the TV. Nope, by now they have fallen to sleep while watching TV!
Time for Momma Kim to go to bed. They will be up early and will be ready to start the day! Kids…I SOOOOO wish I had their energy and responsibilities...or lack there of!!!!!

PS I have a prayer request. My friend Sandra really needs prayer. I don't need to say why or what, God knows her needs. However we can pray for comfort, peace, direction and strength.
