- Arise at 7-ish, coffee and Bible time for.a.whole.hour.a.l.o.n.e.!
- 8ish the young tribe members arise. Are greeted with hugs and suggestions for making their own breakfasts independently, as I have blog reading to do.
- Tribal leader arises at 9-ish.
- conversation, a bit of pleasure reading
- nap from 10:45-12ish.
- lunch: Mcmuffin-esque goodness for Drama Girl and Big; mac and cheese for David; left overs atop a bed of spinach for me. I actually broke down and did prepare the food.
- trip into Langley for strolling and a tiny bit of shopping--I bought a game of pick up stix, so you know it was some fierce shopping...
- short drive to South Whidbey State Park for a wandering hike amidst the beautiful majestic trees and giant slugs. Weather? Nearly a perfect partly cloudy 65 degrees.
- return movie from last night (Batman Begins)
- grabbed a sugar-free latte for the momma. Cuz I've been working so hard and all.
- Blackberry crisp (from our own blackberry bushes) with ice cream.
- Post sugar- high nap/pleasure readage.
- And now? Going to our po-dunk theater to see Dark Knight (Batman) for $6 for Big and me and $4 for the kids. Popcorn $1.50.
It's all good.
The laundry and chores and school prep can wait for just one more day...

I wanted to read your ENTIRE post, but after I saw the word nap - I had to stop and take the suggestion. Guess I'll have to finish up later!

Hey friend,
Hey would you pray for my daughter Courtney? She leaves on Monday for 3 weeks missions trip to India.
She's flying alone and meeting missionary friends of ours. It's her first flight...
Pray for her and ME!
Thanks,
