After a great week spent with family, we are home. Peaceful, calm...
Oh wait, that was just my dream.
This week we are thrust into all the "stuff" that needs done. First on the list was grocery shopping, since apparently everyone here was about to starve. (hardly) Tomorrow morning, Sam gets his ear tubes out. I'm incredibly thankful for a friend willing to take both older boys so I can focus just on Sam tomorrow. I talked to him a bit today about the surgery, and he's all happy-go-lucky about it. "Ok Mama. No problem!" Yeah, we'll see how much "no problem" it is when we're in the thick of it.
In the times I wasn't completely frozen up in CT, I learned a little something about my boys. I never gave their musical tastes much thought, as they like much of the same that we do. When we were in CT, I had a classic rock station on and they were very agitated. The 2nd time we got in the car to that station, they said "Mom, PLEASE find a different station. This music isn't good for us at all. We need WPER." PER is the local Christian music station here in VA. I did finally find one that barely came in based in New York, and they were happy. Drew pulled me aside later to tell me that he really does not like to hear music that doesn't glorify God. Ben agreed. As much as I do, they find comfort in the themes and lyrics of the music we listen to here at home. I can't wait to take them to their first concerts this year. Drew's surprise for his birthday is seeing Casting Crowns in February (shhh....he doesn't know yet!!) and then we will all go see Third Day in March. We're so excited!!! So happy for birthdays that fall around these concerts so we can make them birthday gifts.
