As good as Milly was yesterday, she decided to make up for it today. Then again, I thought she was making up yesterday for the day before that, so who knows? She was up a little early, didn’t finish her bottle and was fussy enough, despite that I tried several things to make her happy, that I was able to put her down for her nap just a little before 9:30. She usually goes down closer to 10.
Work seems to slowly be getting back to how it was before a week or two ago. That’s good in that I get to make money, but it would also be nice not to feel stressed out for having plans at 6:00.
Plans at 6:00 were going to Port City Community Church for a meeting about Grow Zone, the children’s ministry that Amanda and I both volunteer at. There are some big changes coming up that they wanted to announce, first and foremost among them was that everyone who helps out in the rooms is going to be moved to doing it every week. I can see why that’s a good idea, as it gives the kids more stability and the chance to build better relationships with them and their parents, but it gives me a lot to think about. I also volunteer on the production team once a month, plus hardly a month goes by when Amanda and I don’t either have someone in town for the weekend or we’re out of town ourselves. We’ll just have to pray about it and see where we’re lead.
Kirsten came over early to watch Milly while we went to the meeting and Barry came to pick her up at about 7:30, just a few minutes before Joel, Mia and Felix came over for small group, bearing a birthday cake. I don’t know what it is, but I don’t think I’ve had more birthday cake for any other birthday in my life. Anyway, they were the only other couple who could make it tonight, so we ate cake, chatted and breezed through our discussion. We’ve only got one chapter left in our study on Romans.
