Besides a husband, down for the count,
And a lethargic son, throwing up,
And six hours without electricity,
I had such a lovely day.
I spent an hour finishing a hands-on project for school.
Will it make any difference in eternity?
None. But I bought it, and the boys worked on it.
So let me finish it.
I watched my favorite 25 minutes of Keira Knightley
In Pride and Prejudice. It’s a lovely movie . . .
But the book is better.
I read and read and read to the boys.
Picked up a record seven (!) packages at the post office.
Watched the boys open their matchbox cars from friends,
Then opened a box with three puzzles.
Isaiah took the 300 piece. Caleb and I did the two 60 piece.
We read by candlelight.
Found enough food to satisfy ourselves during the power outage.
Cleaned the house a bit.
Tried two sudoku puzzles (both failed, but it’s okay).
Prayed.
Sank deep into the day off.
