he woke me up this morning. i told him my eyes weren't working. he told me breakfast was ready. everyone was sitting at the table waiting. i could have slept another 5 1/2 hours but i rolled over and crawled out. they greeted me with happy smiles. the boys hadn't seen me since yesterday morning - us girls were gone most of saturday at a shower out of town - so their smiles were extra wide.

tonights options are -
stay up and . . . .
start laundry from the weekend
run the dishwasher
clean up the kitchen
go through and put away all the stuff that came in from the suburban clean out
file bookwork
scrub the smeared toothpaste off the bathroom floor
take the overflowing trash out
wash molly's bottles
repack the diaper bag
make sure i'm ready to leave the house by 10am tomorrow morning
go through this weekends pictures
take a shower
go to bed
he told me i could stay up as late as i wanted. but if i'm up with molly like i have been . . . my nights sleep will be cut to only a few hours. thus the bone weary exhaustion of my eyes not wanting to open this morning.
. . . . i think i might just skip down to the last two . . . .

'for you were called to freedom, brethren - only do not turn your freedom into an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another.' - gal 5
in between taking children in and out of church this morning i was challenged to remember our freedom. the freedom we have been given through our relationship with Jesus - what am i doing with my freedom . . . ?
