Weekends come and go so fast!

This weekend we had two of our grandchildren stay from Friday to Sunday evening. We love to have them come. We enjoy them immensely. I'm so thankful their mom and dad are letting us have a part in their lives. They live about an hour away, so this is keeping us in touch.

The hardest part is getting them to go to bed at a decent hour! Then, of course, getting them up for church Sunday morning can be next to impossible, depending on which of the children we have. The older one is never hard to get up and going, the younger ones are a different story! But we couldn't love them more!

We have had some of our grandchildren at our home almost every weekend for a while now, and we never tire of having them here. They are so interesting! They help keep us young! We are able to see things from a young person's standpoint.

Getting up Monday morning for work is a little challenging after a short weekend, but I love my job. I work at a Day Care and take care of infants. I'm on the lookout for a secretarial position now, only because taking care of infants is a little more demanding physically than secretarial work and secretarial work is my first love (when it comes to work, of course).

I think bedtime is a struggle at any age, so don't feel bad. I have a hard time getting myself to bed on time, let alone the two kids! ;)

Sunday mornings are pretty much the same around here, too, whether they've had enough sleep or not. I'm hoping they outgrow that as they get older, but who knows? The oldest isn't a morning person at all; the youngest IS!
