I bought some ring tones for the first time. It was fun. : ) I bought that song "Love" and it is assigned to Roo's number now. And I bought Larry singing "Oh where is my cell phone!", the kids love that! And I bought a song by Trip Lee that I really like. Here are the lyrics from the chorus:
Partner you know I'm good to go Pressure creates diamonds and fire refines the gold There's nothing on this planet that's satisfying my soul I'm living for tomorrow, today is out of control, fa sho, I'm Good Take all my money, I'm good Here comes the pain, I'm good Yeah they can kill me, I'm good To die is gain, I'm good I ain't saying that we don't feel any pain I'm just saying you can't take us out the game, cause homie we good I like that. I'm good. A few nights ago Cal got up in the middle of the night for about an hour around 2:30, Deaking was up for an hour or so around 4:00am, and Bryse was up once with a nightmare. I have been sleeping awful since Deakin started sleeping through the night. So I woke several times on my own unable to turn my head off and go back to sleep. I've been taking herbal sleeping pills that sometimes help a little. It's not bad enough to try anything else yet. I may try some herbal tea tonight. I dunno. Anyway, the whole point to sharing the lack of sleep was to give glory to God! Because His grace is sufficient and I'm not feeling that bad from it. He carries me through and things seem pretty easy most days. Which is hillarious when I go back and read journal entries from when Darby was two and she was all I had and I would wimper and whine when I didn't get a nap and was so stressed about so many things. It is amazing how the Lord changes us for what we need to do. I beg God daily to change me more into the image of His son. I have started going through the study True Womanhood 101. I invited several women in the area to join me on Thursday nights if they wanted. We will see if that turns out. Regardless I'm gonna go through the study, but I am hoping to make some friends in the process. ; ) Right now is actually the first Thursday that I was gonna host but no one showed up! Ha! So we will see what happens the rest of the weeks. No matter what I am praying that the Lord would soften my heart and dig out more of "me" and replace it with more of Him. Darby is doing alright with school. We deal with what seems to be a pretty typical bad attitude about doing school work while her little siblings get to play. But she'll get over it. And the Lord is using this challenge to really work out some nasty sinful nature from both of us. I'm very thankful for the bad days and even more thankful for the good days. : ) Bryse has been the doctor three times in the last couple of weeks. First it was because of a nasty rash from what we presume to be poison ivy. They referred us to an allergist. And then I took her because of checking on what seems to be an umbilical hernia and a cyst on her eyelid. To which both, I was referred to an opthamologist and a surgeon. We saw the surgeon today and he said that it's not an umbilical hernia and he really doesn't know, so he's referring us to the children's hospital in KC to see a pediatric surgeon. The same day the surgeon called up the opthamology and twisted some arms and got them to see Bryse for a few minutes right then. They think it isn't a cyst. We are to do hot compresses three times a day and see if we can get some drainage. So that is where we are now. Cal is doing alright. He is three, so we are doing quite a bit of discipleship on how to treat mommy with respect and how to obey ASAP. Deakin is wild. He tells us what a car says, but really sounds more like Tim the toolman than a car. Ha! He says "dog" and chases Jack all over. He loves to help me sweep. He follows me around with the dustpan while I sweep and then when I'm ready to scoop up the enormous amount of dirt/food/gunk he hands me the dustpan and squats down to watch me really close. If you put on some music with a good beat he will dance while saying, "dance dance dance". The children would rather watch that than tv any day!
