The Moon Was Yellow

Yup, it really was (and that's a song by Frank Sinatra!). I saw it when I went to Wal Mart and Alamo Fireworks with Sarah tonight. Oh man, that was a fun adventure haha. She's so silly and outgoing and laughs at absolutely everything...kinda reminds me of me sometimes haha. I love it. There are definitely times I can tell she's a jr higher, but there are other times where I swear she's mature enough to be in college. But I don't know if that's cuz a lot of college students are extremely immature, or if that's cuz she has her mature moments. Something I can't seem to figure out.

Today was a good day. I kept waking up every half hour or so from about 6am til 8 and I was still kinda tired but I didn't think I was tired enough to fall asleep, so I just stayed in bed for a while. But I ended up falling asleep and not getting up til 9:30. It was kinda nice to sleep in, but I felt kinda bad. I know I shouldn't, but I can't help it. Anyways, I ended up reading my Bible for a while downstairs while eating breakfast and playing "Say Yes To The Dress" on TLC. Which, of course, got me into thinking about wedding gowns and what I'd want and what is hideous and all that stuff. But then Star Wars V: The Empire Strikes Back came on and I had to watch it...so I did :) And I had a moment today when I just knew that these two weeks with Becca weren't going to be all that hard. Tiring, yes, but not un-manageable. She was under my watch cuz Matt wanted to call his boss who's in the hospital. She was outside at the time, but when she came in about 3 minutes later she brought in a really bad smell along with this honey-mustard colored crap all over her clothes and legs. Literally, it was crap. So I took her to the back bathroom and started to take her shorts off and gagged so bad I thought I was gonna puke. But I didn't. I ended up cleaning her off, stripping her of her clothes and putting clean clothes on her. I had to clean her legs, her back, her arms, some of her face, I might as well have given her a bath. It was DIS. GUS. TING!!!! After about 10 minutes or so she was back to clean and we ended up playing with a blanket again. Her favorite thing is chasing me in circles while I have a blanket over my shoulders. It's great cuz it's like exercise but not tiring cuz I just walk really fast in small circles and she absolutely loves it! She laughs and makes her happy noises. I'll have to get a picture of her for y'all cuz she really is adorable. 

"Do not be wise in your own eyes;
 fear the LORD and shun evil.
This will bring health to your body
and nourishment to your bones."
Proverbs 3:7-8 NIV.

Anyways, it was a fun day. We didn't do much, but it was entertaining and spent with the family. Including the boys who are finally back from their dad's!! Yay! :) We already did our own versions of American Idol and America's Next Top Model hahaha. The boys love runway walks for some odd reason. It's hilarious! Haha

Well, folks, the moon was yellow tonight (along with a few other things not quite so pleasant!). And looking at the moon is peaceful for me. I think I'll sleep well tonight.

And that's life through the eyes of a banana munchkin.
