Taylor did all the dinner dishes last night:) He is a good husband and daddy. He gave me a power drill for my birthday, which I forgot to mention yeseterday. It's not what you think. I asked for a power drill. I'm a hands-on kind of gal. Home Depot is one of my favorite stores. Actually my top two are Home Depot and Ann Taylor. Love them both.
I'm primary president in our ward. I think every Mormon woman has to be primary president at some point. It's kind of like a rite of passage in Mormon womanhood. I do enjoy it. It's actually easier in my opinion than being a teacher. Well, maybe not less work per say. But I had the hardest time as a teacher staying awake during sharing time. But now I'm busy enough during sharing time I never have time to nod off. I may have narcolepsy or whatever the condition is when you fall asleep really easily. Sitting through Sunday school without falling asleep is pretty much impossible for me. I'm one of those people that nods off, head gradually lowering until I wake with a start and embarass myself. I can't help it though. It just happens as much as I try to fight it.
Sunday is a day of rest, or so they say. That's not usually the case at our house. Has anyone with three small kids at home felt "rested" at the end of the day? I bet not. At least it's a day of not thinking about work and trying to refocus on the important things in life. I have to admit there have been a few hours here and there in our Sundays lately that feel restful. Emily spends more and more time off by herself reading and Olivia and Evan play together. As long as Evan is following Olivia's instructions there is peace but every so often a fight erupts. Or every so often if they are being really quiet I know I need to go check what manner of destruction they are causing.
