My Very Exciting Day... haha

Jason came home yesterday for Spring break. *laughs* I'll let him tell you what he did to his little brother in the airport. Poor Jonathan. *chuckle*

Jer and I looked for Jason a long time this morning. We arrived at church 30 minutes early and sat vigilant before and after the service, then waited an extra 20 minutes in case Jason and his family came to the next service. Nada. We finally had to leave and I discovered later that they drove past us honking and waving. I didn't see or hear a thing. Oh well.

After church, Jer and I headed home for two hours before we left again for a friend's Eagle Scout court of honor. Jeremy's former troop is full of up-scale Carrollton residents. It was nice to see a couple of families we hadn't seen in a while, but I felt so out of place in that group of people. I think that's my lot in life - no matter where I am I will always feel out of place. Like Jesus said, "I am not of this world." If I felt comfortable, something would be wrong. That is why I try my hardest to always be uncomfortable and never fit in (or as my mom would put it: "light a fire under your butt").

We went straight from the court of honor to Jer's choir rehearsal. I finally saw Jason and we hung out for a while - which really involved me giving him a tour of the children's learning center and being followed by my usual entourage of five to nine-year-olds. Jason taught the council times for both Sparks and T&T (in full uniform of course), so I didn't see much of him.

During Awana, my girls decided it would be fun to scare the heck out of me by hiding in a closet and jumping out. I leapt back five feet and screamed, faked a swoon and got another big laugh. I had to laugh with them - it really was funny (I'm sure I looked funny too). Life is too short to take yourself seriously.

So that was my very exciting day. Don't worry - I'll post some poetry or something more interesting tomorrow. I seem to be lacking in creative juices tonight.
