I love it when I don't look forward to a week, and then, all of a sudden, God gives me little things to help make it so much nicer.
Like unexpected quiet times.
Unexpected moments with my children.
Unexpected moments with friends.
Last night we had a pre-celebration for the Talented One's birthday. One of my dear friends spends every Wednesday with us. B-boo and I used to go to her house every Wednesday while the little ones were at AWANA. Then I got sick. So she started coming to my house instead. The best things ever…because my whole family just loves her visits!
Last night, she brought brownies and ice cream…and marinara sauce. We invited some of my son's friends over and we had spaghetti and dessert. The Good-Looking one came over, too, so it made for such a nice evening! We spent the evening laughing and playing Mexican train. I was exhausted, but it was fun.
That's the kind of unexpected moments that I like...Just for the Joy of It!

I couldn’t agree more! Isn’t God good to know just what we need when we need it? Especially when it involves brownies!!

Thanks for your comment on my blog. I’m looking at your sidebar and it kinda looks like everyone should be called ‘The Good Looking One.’ 🙂 Thanks for stopping by!

hi Hope-
Thanks for leaving me such a nice comment. You are one busy Mom with 4 active kids and a SNAKE- yikes. Is that yours or were the pics taken at a zoo?
