Okay, I've made lists of things that need to be done each day for the next FOUR days and hopefully everything will get done and we will be ready for FRIDAY! Everyone at our house is soooo excited for Grandma & Grandpa to come home. Okay, Squiggle doesn't know she is excited, but I'm sure she's excited too.
Please cross your fingers everything is clean in both houses, grass is green at both houses, food is ready at both houses and children are happy at both houses. A lot to ask? Probably, but one can hope. We (my family & Brett's) have worked hard the past few weeks and I really think my parents are coming home! It seems real and we are very excited to see them, let their grandchildren get to know them and give them LOTS of hugs & kisses.
So many people have helped me the past month I really feel overwhelmed with gratitude. I have been the recipient of much wonderful service and it is very humbling. I love when you look back on an experience and realize you learned something totally unexpected. That is what has happened to me the last six weeks. My children have had great places to play while I've been working, people have helped me get my new house ready & my mom's house ready, strong men have helped me move my stuff & my parent's stuff, and my parent's neighbors are having a Family Home Evening "Spruce Up the Yard" tomorrow night. Sometimes it is hard for me to let others serve me, but I'm trying to be better and this has been great practice. So now I just need to Pay it Forward. Where should I start?
