Yesterday was a busy day. DH and DD went to a Worship Conference at church. The Church had got Russel Fragar over from America. Everyone seemed to enjoy it. People were impressed by DD’s input. She’s only 8 but was asking some good questions like how to fully worship God while still trying to play your instrument and is there any wrong way to worship God. I was very proud of my little munchkin.

While they were off at the conference I babysat my friends two kids so they could attend. DS was home as well. Actually he probably did most of the work. I was feeling particularly exhausted and was getting a few minor cramps.

Last night they had a worship conference at church which Russell Fragar led. It was really good and we had different denominations there too. I love seeing God’s people breaking down denominational barriers and worshipping God together.

On the way home we hired out a couple of DVD’s. DH and I watched one called Inkspell last night. It was strange but enjoyable. It was a fantasy.

Finally got to sleep about 1am. Hope I’m not getting insomnia again.

Got up at about 7am this morning and rushed around getting ready to get the kids to zone. We were about 20 minutes late. I hung out in the Chill out room while the kids went to Sunday School and worked on a baby blanket. Then we all went up to the 2nd service.

I conked out for a couple hours this afternoon but woke up with severe heartburn. Ouch. No real plans for tonight. Going to make some custard rice for dessert in a minute. Yum.

Luv and hugs

God Bless

My Mum's Day

Today is Mother’s Day so Happy Mother’s Day to all the mums out there. Had an early start again this morning. Would have loved a big long sleep in but it was not to be. DH was doing an item at church today and had to be out there by 8am for practise. I miss having two cars. I got a cup of tea and a nutragrain breakfast bar in bed. The kids came running in with plenty of hugs and kisses. They gave me a Chris Tomlin CD, a bookmark, hand decorated clothes hanger, a pink lunch box and pink measuring cups. After a mad rush to get ready we headed off to church. I dropped DH and the kids and proceeded to Maccas for breakfast. My Mum’s Day treat for me.
Got back to church in time to watch some of the practise then head off for Zone (our Sunday School). I was only planning on staying for the beginning bit and then going to hang out in the Chill Out room. They had plenty of teachers today and I’m a floater usually. But as I was passing Girl Zone (girls – ages 12-15) they called me in so I joined them for the lesson. I had filled in for their teacher last week. They must have enjoyed it.
Church service was next. It was really nice. There were chairs set up around tables and yummy food on each table to snack on. We had three different women speak and Pastor Rob. I loved DH’s item. It was Mountain of God by Third Day. He truly has a beautiful voice. A friend of mine also did an item. She was great too and it was good to see her get past her shyness to stand up there.
I have been thinking about getting DD singing lesson but couldn’t really afford it at the moment. A teenager at church who sings offered to give her some basic lesson for free. That’s great, even better because her mum, a friend will bring her over here for the lessons and we can have a cuppa and chat while the lesson is on.
This afternoon was a bit of a veg out. Barbie “Thumbelina” was on TV so I watched that with DD. Had a short snooze too. Did a couple of laps around the park late this arvo. That brings the total to 21laps.
We had chicken nuggets for tea. They were yummo! Would have preferred for DH to cook me a gourmet meal but if you don’t ask you don’t get. Plus he’s not feeling well.
Well that’s about it. I still have to ring my Mum so I’d better go.

Luv and Hugs

God bless
