Friday night's here! That's what I'm grateful for right now. A loooong week, many night meetings, kids waking up in the middle of the night, an unexpected trip to the doctor for (blessedly) minor injury, glow bowling today with the 3rd, 4th and 5th grades (this involves music, disco balls, black lights, bowling and pizza all amalgamated into in one dizzying tween fiesta), all capped off with a Cub Scout pack meeting tonight. Whew! Just typing it makes me tired.
(And, truth be told, very, very grateful for this young and energetic crowd I run around with) : )

Inspiration
- "Do not look forward to what may happen tomorrow; the same everlasting Father who cares for you today will take care of you tomorrow and every day. Either He will shield you from suffering or He will give you unfailing strength to bear it. Be at peace, then, put aside all anxious thoughts and imaginations and say continually: "The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart has trusted in Him and I am helped. He is not only with me but in Me and I in Him." - St. Francis de Sales, patron saint of writers
