Operation Kill Procrastination

..has commenced. So please forgive me for the lack of posting. I have been tackling some little (and I do mean little) areas that I have been procrastinating, like my desk drawers, the girls playroom, and 1 of the 4 closets that need some serious organizing.
Other than that, I have been busy with some VERY (tee hee) important things like Brianna's "Stick Meeting" for which I showed up VERY late. I almost missed the hunt for sticks and the "show and Tell" part of it ;). I also attended Anjolie's Birthday party she hostessed for "dead bug" he turned 1. There was even a mud cake with flower candles. We all sang "Happy Birthday" to dead bug...it was quite the celebration. We chased and caught some butterflies with the girls' nets they bought from the 100yen store which was alot of fun.

Oh, and one of my friends gave me a really great idea. She said that we should, as sisters in Christ, "treat" each other more in the way of preparing meals. We take meals to those who are ill or just had a baby, but why not do it "just because". So I had the blessing of preparing a "just because" meal for one of my friends. I just emailed her and just let her know what I was doing. Believe me, it totally made my day, and I am going to try and do it once a month for whoever the Lord lays on my heart. This church has done so much for our family and it truly is a blessing to give back even in a small way as the Lord allows. God is so good and soooo incredibly patient with me.

Sounds like lots of fun. Well, the VERY important things that is. You are great to do those things with your girls, they'll always remember those days. Okay, I guess I'll say good job on tackling the cleaning of the stuff that needed to be done.
Have a blessed day.

That's a great idea.
I try to have people over for fellowship at least once a month, but that can be hard when I have a lot of different kids that are hard to manage!! So just making the meal and bringing it to them is at least giving them a meal, even if you can't enjoy their company!! I've done that as well, and it IS a blessing!! :)
Good for you!!
And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.

Yes, the small child thing is difficult to manage...so I feel at least I can help in a small way...it really lifts my spirits to do it as well!!
