The calm before the storm.....

I am sitting in my quiet apartment this morning. It is peaceful. Usually on Saturday morning the television is on. The boys are all doing their own thing. I am cleaning up the kitchen from a late breakfast. This morning is different. Kevin and L are at football practice. K is at a friends house. I went for a run at my favorite place. It always renews my mind and quiets my heart when I am there.

As I sit here in the quiet I ponder our summer as it comes to an end. It was different but good. It was quiet but fun. Ready to start a new school year. Ready for rythym and routine. Ready for driving here and there, back and forth? Monday will start everything in motion and the whirlwind will begin.....

I think I am ready for the craziness to start........... I need the discipline of routine in my life.

Last night I celebrated a night out with the girls. Dinner and a movie: "Must Love Dogs". I thought it was a cute movie. It made me very thankful for a loving and faithful husband. Tonight we will toast to a another great summer with some good friends over dinner! Sunday we will worship and a take a deep breath to prepare for the big week ahead!

Mixed emotions.......YAHOO!!!!!
