Thursdays are busy. I work from 9 - 12:30pm. Come home, feed the kids lunch (although my parents who babysit often get a jump start on this for me) and bring Isaac to school. Meanwhile, my sister drops off her youngest. I come home, get Hope down for a nap and hang out with Simon for about 45 minutes and then we get to entertain another little one from 2pm - 3:30pm.
It's amazing that between the feeding, naps, 2 additional kids, trips to school and trying to get a few minutes of work in, I find such peace. I often put on a Kids Praise CD while the kids are up between 2 - 3 and find it brings so much peace to the house. It helps me focus on God during one of the 'mundane' tasks of my day. Yes, the kids sometimes fuss and cry and need a lot of attention, but it's just so peaceful to not have the TV on, and it certainly helps that none of the 3 kids around right now can really talk my ear off like Isaac sometimes can! :)
