Ok, let me say that having 2 kids and driving 30 minutes to work really fills up a day. We are children/house sitting for a couple at church this week and wow what a time consumer, TONS of fun, but where does the time go?! Has really got me thinking about being parents and time committments and all that. How do working parents find enough time to play with and be an influence in their children's lives?
Also, I just read When Crickets Cry this past week, and it is really really good. If you like novels at all and want some real depth/realness to a book check it out. Sometimes the books we find in Christian book stores are cheesy, some are really cheesy, most give you that feeling like the book is just "baptized" in Christianity, this book has 0% of either. I don't know how exactly to explain it, but there is something more...
It is amazing how much time kids take up. Of course you want to give them all the time in the world, but at the same time give yourself the much needed time to just be. I know you guys would be just wonderful parents and I look forward to the day that you give us a neice or nephew to spoil. :)
