Top Ten Highlights of the week

At some point in my life I WILL blog again.  This week has been nuts!  First week of school for the boys, Chris is thrown into a new “month Schedule”..and so on.  Last night was Palin’s speech.  Tonight is the Gamecocks.  Tomorrow I leave for Nashville to visit sweet friends.  SOOOOO… as I said one day I will blog again.  Right now, life is keeping me busy.  Just wanted to give shout outs to all of my peeps in blogland.  I will be reading YOUR blogs as I search for something blogworthy of my own to write about.  Right now I’ll just leave you with my top 10 highlights of the week:

1.  After we all made it back home from the first day of school Will looked at Josh and said, “Josh, will you be my friend forever?”  (I think he actually missed his brother.)

2.  I did a “Boston butt” in my crock-pot for Labor Day… poured a little vinegar sauce on top…pulled it apart…just like home in the Carolinas… SOOO GOOD!

3.  Walked in to get Emma Faye one morning and she had undressed herself down to her diaper.  (How in the world!!)

4.  Playing soccer with Will one afternoon.  (He’s actually really good and stole the ball from me.  And I was really trying to keep it away from him!)

5.  Watching Josh walk into his classroom and realizing the Miracle that Jesus has done in his heart.  Exactly one year ago he would BAWL when we would drop him off for Sunday School.  I NEVER IMAGINED that Josh would be ready for a preschool.

6.  Hanging out with my neighbor Gina and seeing the work Christ is doing in her life.

7.  Getting to workout everyday this week!

8.  Getting in the car after school on Wednesday and hearing Will tell Josh, “Josh, did you know that God is the biggest.  He’s bigger than EVERYTHING.. even really, really tall buildings!!!”  Josh’s response, “Oh, yeah, I knowed that.”

9.  Watching Josh carrying his little Lightening McQueen lunch-bag in his hand saying “Oh mommy, I’m so excited about my lunch.”

And last but never least….

10.  Watching Emma Faye INHALE her Chicken Bog one night at dinner.  Chicken..sausage and all….Hilarious!
