Keeping On Keeping On

It.Is.Spring.

And yes, I know I live in a warm climate, but there is something beautiful about knowing that it really IS Spring.

I LOVE SPRING.

OK...so I love winter.  And Fall.  And Summer.

But I really love springtime best of all.

Alex had a concert last night and looked smashing all dressed up in his tux.  And for the record, this is the HAPPIEST he looked on stage:

After, he was all smiles...but not on stage.  So funny how all these boys came from the same two parents, yet are so amazingly different.

I had woken up early yesterday morning and spent some quiet time before anyone woke up reading through the Psalms of Ascent, which are so moving to me.

I spoke at MOP's yesterday, which I truly do not think is my gift AT ALL, but somehow the Lord makes it all work out.  It was then time for Meals on Wheels and I cannot even begin to tell you much I miss my dear Josephine. She sent me a lovely card the other day reminding me that fig season is approaching and to remember to pull the bottom leaves off my tomato plants.

Sigh.

I miss her.

Brian and Alex each brought a crowd home after school, so I made a gourmet nutritious snack of pizza rolls and popcorn.

But hey, it was cheap.  And easy.

Finally met up with that guy that I like so much at the concert, where we listened to Alex's choir and then DITCHED the rest.

Unthinkable.  

But needed.

Got those boys in bed, put my jammies on, turned on Greys Anatomy and drank ridiculously priced champagne.  On a Thursday.

Bliss.

Today is incredibly full, too.  I am meeting a girlfriend for a quick breakfast, then it's Jog-a-Thon day at Brian's school...so I'll be there for a good chunk of the morning.  Brian has flag football afterschool, which involves driving,  and then M and I have a wedding at 5:30pm, so it'll be a late night for us.  Alex has another concert...his best friends family will be the cheering section for him tonight, and Matthew has offered to come home and stay with Brian.

He actually wants to do his laundry and is hoping for a free pizza...I think I can handle that.
