Do you ever feel like you are juggling with eggs? :) Lately I feel like I am trying to juggle several eggs and my fear is that one of these days I am going to forget about one of them and it is going to splat all over the ground. I love the things I am juggling: my husband, my 8th graders, grading, directing the play, singing at church, family, friends, cleaning (not so sure I love this one:), cooking.... but yikes, it is hard to keep them all up in the air!
This week has been one of those insane and busy weeks, but it was also full of blessings. I had parent teacher conferences Monday and Tuesday night and instead of having to cook dinner Tuesday night, Mark and I went out for a late dinner at Crazy Horse- my favorite Restaurant. Wednesday I had practice at church and after I was able to see a family friend perform at the Park Theater in Holland. He was touring here from Nashville where he is recording. Thursday after play practice I stayed to finish painting the set and I got a chance to sit and laugh with two 8th graders while we painted in a quiet gym. Then I went with a friend to watch Holland Christian's Living Hope Singers perform. Tonight after play practice my mom, sister and a few friends are coming over to scrapbook- one of my favorite activities! (If any of you are wondering, I do like to spend time with my husband too, but he is out of town this weekend :)
So- there you have it- crazy busy, but life is full and blessed. God is good.

Kelli, I know what you mean about juggling. I get overwhelmed at it all, but when you stop and absorb the moment you're in, it really makes you appreciate the little things. Caroline reminds me of that every day.
Have you thought about starting a life book? I've only read a little about them, but there are some things you can start doing now. I'll try to post about what I've read soon.
Juggling eggs....nice analogy! Yeah painting the set was fun, and surprisingly it turned out pretty good! I am actually watching play practice right now...sorry to say, but it's kind of boring. Haha and chapel today was fun too...that was so funny!
Sounds like you are busy...in a good way!
Have fun scrapbooking. That is one hobby that is so NOT me! I "scrapped" 2 books for our kids in ET but never sent them b/c after all the blood, sweat and tears it took to make them, I didn't want the kids to never receive them. :+)
Have a good weekend.
Oh yes, I understand about juggling sometimes. It sounds like you've had some fun too though! How is your running/training coming along? I can't believe how little snow is left down here; we have at least a foot still covering our entire yard!
I hear ya Kelli!! I feel the same way at times too. But like you said, life is good and blessed!!!
