My husband must like morning people. Of course, I am not one of those. I require at least 20 minutes after waking to lay in bed, stretch, and 'think' about getting up. I have to mentally prepare myself to actually get out of bed. Not to mention the physical ailments of pregnancy. My back doesn't work in the morning, so without the proper stretching, I walk like a deformed-French-bell-ringer for the first hour of my day. Forget making the bed...I don't have any strength in my hands that early.
Back to my husband. This morning he jumps out of his shower, all perky and cheery, and tells me to get out of bed so he can make it. I appreciate the thought, after all he's only trying to help me with this week's goal of waking before the kids do. However, being forcebly required to pop out of bed upon waking and participate in the ridiculous ritual of bed-making is akin to Chinese-water-torture. I don't know what's wrong with that man.
HOwever, it was nice to have a few minutes to read my devotions, check email, and write this blog post before the hooligans wake up and attack me. Haha...now I can go on the offensive and attack the little monsters myself! Thanks, hubbby. |
We have been traveling for almost a year with my hubby's job, and now are getting ready to actually be home (for another contract he's taking...anyway). I am very inspired by your once a month cooking day and the zip lock bag freezer storage. I will certainly be checking out your tips. My joke always is, now I have this family and I have to learn how to feed them! (We've been blessed to be able to live off of Olive Garden during our travels...but now reality is setting back it, LOL) I also love your testimony of God blessing you with a husband and LOTS of babies! Why to go GOD! God Bless you and yours...
