Sunday and Days of Grace

Today is the calm before the storm. Literally. We are expected to get up to 10 inches of snow or more tonight. Crap. I hate snow. Thankfully Hubby doesn't go into work until tomorrow night so he will be home all day to shovel and play with the boys outside. Then maybe I can stay inside and stay warm. Wish me luck.
This morning J had to stay home from church after throwing such a HUGE temper tantrum in church last week. But R still went with me. He is so different from J. J spends every second of his life on full-speed. Even his emotions are on high. But R, he is calm and quiet. He is a thinker, a plotter. You can see his mind working....and sometimes I would love to know what is going through his mind.

Today I found Grace in....

-seeing the ground for the last time for a least a few days. When I get up tomorrow morning it will all be covered in snow. Lots and lots of snow.

-a nice lunch at my MIL's. She makes a big meal every Sunday for the family. I love her.

-Hubby doing my laundry this morning....I just wonder if he remembered to put them in the dryer???

-The boys playing quietly upstairs this afternoon.

-And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives in love, lives in God and God in him. I John 4:16

Ah, you will be lucky if you get 6inches... You are just like me and don't want to go out to play in snow... brrrrr.

I am so glad R is so good in church. Maybe J will be good next week.

That was so nice of your hubby to do the laundry for you. Give him a thank you hug from me too.

I know March is still time for snow, since there was a blizzard on our wedding day on March 26th, but it just seems like it should be done already!!
