Crowded Day

I'm already a behind today. I was supposed to go to bed early and get up early and go to the 5:30 am session at the temple.

The house needs some serious attention. I have lots of cubscout stuff to do. I have visiting teaching. Then all the normal stuff and lots more. So we will just do our best and plug along.

I pray Heavenly Father will strength me and help me prioritize in the right way. I'm so grateful He helps me do this and figure out what is most important and what He needs me to do on any given day. If I just turn my day over to Him, He can make more of it than I ever could.

Ready for Bed

We have had a great day! And I'm ready for bed. It's only 8:30, but I'm lucky enough to be on my way to bed.

We went shopping for humanitarian baby kits, worked on homework, made chili, and then went on a walk up the canyon. The big kids ran down the riverside trail. The little kids and I walked up a ways then down. It was beautiful, breezy, and the perfect temperature! That was the perfect ending to the day.

Now I'm going to neglect the dishes, laundry, cooking, and housework and climb into bed. Tomorrow morning I will have more energy and work much faster than I would now. The big kids are going to bed too. Then they can finish their homework when they are fresh in the morning. I believe in early to bed and early to rise. It helps our attitudes and our bodies. It helps us accomplish more even if we have to leave loose ends when we go to bed. I'm so grateful Heavenly Father has given us this counsel. Well, good night!
