The song will be in my head all night. We just got back from the musical, it was awesome! I am amazed at what junior high kids can do when they put their minds to it! I was a little sad that our kids weren't in it. They were last year (Peter Pan) and it was a great experience for them, but under the circumstances, it was too much for me to drive them to SLC for rehearsals. We'll shoot for next year.
I had some awesome help today. Laura came this morning and played and cleaned and helped, then took the kids to the play group in our ward, and then to our monthly luncheon at church. I met them there and had lunch too. I'm so grateful she was willing to do that! It freed me up to run an errand or two without kids, and I was able to go visit a dear friend, Millie, who is now 90 years old and in assisted living. For years we went out to lunch every month until her health (and my last pregnancy) made outings impossible. I haven't seen her since before I was diagnosed, so it was great to see how she was doing. This afternoon, my gardening friend, Jenny came and helped me in the yard. Anyone that knows me (or Jenny!) knows that plants cannot stay in the same place every year. I had her help me move around some things that needed to move, including a tree. We got it all done in less than an hour, she is a trooper and an awesome friend! After she left, I crashed until it was time to gather the kids and go to the musical. Thanks Jenny! I (we) are so blessed to have the people around us that we do. : )
