Procrastinating, painting and ponderings

Currently a neutral shade of khaki, my plans were to brighten up the room of my big boys with a cool, crisp blue sky and white billowing clouds.  It only took 2 1/2 years plus 2 days of procrastinating!  Actually it is soon to be plus 3 days of procrastinating.  After church and getting the baby settled in bed, it took a while for me to dig out all the paint gear from the deep, dark recesses of the garage.  And since dh is gone right now I had no assistance and no GPS to navigate my way through No-Woman's Land.

 

Okay, so I barely made it up the stairs with all the paint paraphernalia only to find my two Thomas the Tank Engine clad boys fast asleep in their beds.  Actually, the light was on and they had wrapped themselves up like burritos in their blankets...sweaty heads and all!  I had promised them that since I didn't get to paint yesterday, I would stay up late tonight and paint their rooms and let them sleep with me in my bed (a rare treat since that means they can watch a movie until they fall asleep).  What is it about kids looking so angelic and sweet when they're sleeping???  All three boys were sleeping with their hiney's up in the air...you know they're still little when they do that!

 

So the painting waits til yet another day...

 

I am so blessed to have three beautiful...I mean, handsome little men...and handsome husband!  I am just filled with joy thinking about my life and all that God has given me-- I am so undeserving!  He has given me so much more than I ever could've imagined and I never would have thought that being a mommy could be sooo wonderful and rewarding.

 

Thank you Lord for bestowing your mercy, grace and blessings upon my family...but most of all, for giving your Son to be sin for us!
