My Friday

I had a typical full Friday schedule at school today, and then some. My worship team usually practices from 1:30 to 2:30 on Fridays, which is club period. Today, however, we went to the church next door for our practice, until 4:00. Of course, we took some time for a snack as well. I love these kids, I really, really do. They're normal fun-loving, crazy kids, but they have such soft hearts for the Lord.

I was home for about half an hour until I had to leave for the women's retreat. Destiny arrived in that half hour. She and Dick went to my school this evening. The parent teacher committee was sponsoring a family movie night. They watched Herbie, Fully Loaded. It was a great chance for Destiny to reconnect with some of her kindergarten friends from last year.

The resource speakers at the women's retreat are two sisters that I haven't seen for many, many years. When Dick and I were first married thirty-six years ago we lived next door to a family that had two little girls. Those two little girls have now grown up, married, have children, and speak at women's retreats! I enjoyed them thoroughly this evening.

Because the retreat is being held at a local place, I came home overnight. I just didn't have time to pack anything. Besides, Destiny needs some hugs tonight, and I just love my own bed. I'll be going back in the morning in time for their 8:30 breakfast.
