snow-baby-church

I live in SC and it snowed here last night.

It is always a big deal when we get snow. Of course it was too warm for it to stick and it only lasted a few hours but it sure was pretty coming down. This morning it is raining and cold.

In our church the children and chaperones are going north (not sure where) for a snow sledding trip. They will be back on Sunday afternoon and I am going to be helping the substitute teacher in the toddlers classroom on Sunday morning. My grandson is in that class room and he is not going on the trip and a few other smaller children are not going. All of the children in there know me becasue of going in with g-baby, so I think it will be ok. Some children does not like change at all.

I had grandson day and night since Sunday Morning. Now I did have children so at one time I kept 2 kids 100% of the time. BUT I have not kept children consistantly in years. I was set up for it at that time. Now G-son and I sleep in the guest bed and it is a king size. Plenty of room but he wants to sleep right under my chin and he talks and laughs in his sleep. He talks as plain in his sleep as he does when he is awake. He talks about trains and cars and wheels on bus go round and round and he laughs, that very endearing uncontrollable laughter. And I lay there beside him and smile cause I know not all grandmothers get this type of wonderful time with there grandchildren. And he turns toward me in the morning and smiles and says"I see ooo, A-mama"

The point of that paragraph is I enjoyed baby being here but I sure didn't get much sleep. He went home last night at 7:15 and we had just enough time to get to church about 4 minutes late. But still we were there. I almost talked myself out of going and maybe I should have stayed home. I am ashamed to say that I fell asleep during preaching. Dh noticed immediately and nudged me but I so hope noone else noticed.

I wonder if anyone else has times when they fall asleep. I'm not talking about older people that fall asleep or children I am talking about people in good healt, like me, people that are not on medication, people that do not work night shift. Just your average person.

God bless you all
