Now that camping season is over, our season of attending church is upon us. We have MISSED it, and everyone was SO excited to go this weekend! The kids were up and dressed for church two hours before it was set to begin. There was even a lunch afterwards that we were going to try to go to.
Personally, I’ve been struggling this week. The idea of wrestling LD and Spoons at the back of the church felt more daunting than usual, and after the break from church, they wouldn’t be an easy sell in the nursery. So my worst case scenario was staying home with the babes while Brady and the others could go. Brady was SO excited to go and reconnect!
Aaaaand then the morning came and for the first time in a while, chemo got the better of my husband :/ Headaches and vomit will wait for no one, therefore church is off the table for today. Merp.
The kids were disappointed. In the regular swing of things, there are definitely Sundays where some of them don’t feel like getting up and going, but today they were READY. But after a quite moment of sadness, Solly said “Well. That is very disappointing. But. We could have a dance party downstairs and still be happy.”
SO THEY DID!!!!! 😳 Way to not dwell in sadness, guys!!!! Four of the five are in comfy clothes, have pulled out colorful lamps and they have the soundtrack to Zombies 4 pumping downstairs. Brady is sleeping. LD and Spoons are just starting to make sound. And Munchie Mix over here is whiny and needs to have a bit more milk before back to bed. Dekker has a commitment at church so he’ll still be going, but the rest of us HOPE to be there next week!!!
We miss you, friends we only see at church!! 💜 We’re almost back!!
