I told Z we need to stop calling them "the orphans". We need new names for them. Since we are still trying to pronounce the name of our girl... even with a translator writing it out for us... we've decided to call her "Sunshine". I told Z I was calling the little boy, Iceman, but he liked Einstein. I always think of a derogatory 80s reference, like "Hey, Stupid!" or "Hey, Einstein!"... when someone does something dumb. I guess I'm just living in the 80s, so I'm going to stick with Iceman.
It's only a few short days until we meet Iceman and Sunshine. I cannot wait until they get here and Sunshine shares how she likes her name pronounced!
We have been rushing around the house and cleaning. My boys and I are thriving with our capsule wardrobes. Laundry has been easier than ever. My husband hasn't quite gotten on board with it yet. His clothes barely fit in the drawers right now. I don't think it's lack of desire, but lack of time. There are definitely some shirts in his closet that he "wouldn't be caught dead in".
There are priorities around here, though. There are things that had to come off the "to-do list", to make sure we could accomplish all the other items. I haven't had the time to cover/fix the dog teething holes, because detailing the car is more important.
Food. Food is also important. Food preparation is harder for me than cleaning. I am the worst dinner planner I know. It's horrible. Technically, I'm the worst "any meal planner"... as my son is sitting here eating Ranch flavored Pringles and the other one has a protein drink. {Mom of the Year Award Winner} Why do you think they've been taking Juice Plus the past few years?
Okay. We're off to football camp this morning. Only 3 more football camps until our guests arrive!
So much to do. So much to do.
On the day I called, you answered me; my strength of soul you increased. Psalm 138:3
