Wrap Up the Week with Joy

It's time to focus on the good stuff.

I like to reflect on my week each Friday when possible. This is kind of a unique Friday, because ... we're gearing up to go back to church!

As you may know, I live and work in one state, but attend church in another. The state I live in is still under a stay-at-home order; but the state where my church is located has released churches to meet as long as they practice social distancing.

We're a small church with a huge sanctuary so there should be ample room to be a safe distance apart; still, I'm excited for corporate worship.

I'm also excited to teach my class again. Instead of the small cozy setting of my class room, we will be meeting in the sanctuary. I'm just so thankful for the opportunity.

On the home front, I finally buckled down and got the last part of my trilogy done! It has only taken me a year and a half to do it. I face a bunch of edits and then the scary part of actually having people read it, but it is such a good feeling to finally type ... The End.

Continued healing: last year the hubs had a scare about his kidneys. This week, test results showed good numbers and the doctor was very pleased. In fact, he had improved. I give God all the praise - and also, I award props to my hubby for faithfully drinking water and kicking the sweet tea habit.

And, as always, the twins bring joy to our lives and brighten our day. Here's a recap of the latest amusing things they've said:

At dinner, Brody was encouraged to "just try a bite of White Chicken Chili. You don't have to eat the beans, just try the broth." After slurping a spoonful, he remarked, "Hey, it's good but a little spicy down my neck."

He's also been saying lately when thirsty, that "his neck is dry."

In Baylee's packet sent home from school, her mom found an activitiy they'd been working on for Grandparent's Day that sadly they never got to have.  She was asked the question:

What do your grandparents do all day while you are at school?

Baylee's answer:  "I think they cook vegetables and watch scary movies. They work outside and water the flowers. Sometimes they go visit family.

She must be talking about Grandma Deena! I never watch scary movies.

And that's a wrap for my week. What about yours?
