today was just bad from the minute i woke up. i had a bad attitude. i felt unappreciated...and a little sorry for myself. i spent most of the day wiping runny noses and holding the little sicky's. i thought to myself 'cherish these times'. ha, not today. not with my attitude. so i chose to do nothing other than take care of the little sicky's. as the day went on i realized my offspring would need some kind of Valentine's for school in the a.m. at least the oldest, un-sick child would. i made a mad dash for the store to grab some very picked-over candy. as i was driving i got a call from a woman interested in buying a bed that i am selling. she asked if she could come right over. i said sure but it would have to be right now because we had some church folks heading over for a visit soon. guess what? the lovely woman came with her cute hubby and they bought the bed! as they were looking at it i realized that i hadn't totally covered one of the bedposts with paint. when they walked out the door i felt sick to my stomach. i told my hubby that i think they should get a better deal. i ran outside and explained myself. the cute man said, 'if I'd wanted a bargain i would have asked for one' he said he didn't care about the paint. what good people there are in this world! the thing is, this money will cover a bill that is due and it is the exact amount due! i am always so blessed. why, I'm not quite sure. after that our church visitors came and they were so refreshing. my Oliver seemed to impress them and they had the same affect on him. when we had our family prayer tonight Oliver asked that the two men would both be blessed. he is such a wise and special boy. i learn from him constantly. so at the end of this day i am grateful for the amazing life that i have.
