Sunshine Makes For Happy Days!!

I have been meaning to post since Tuesday, but boy does life get away from you sometimes. We had three beautiful days at the beginning of the week. We were loving the sunshine, and the beautiful weather. Tuesday we had Tegan's friend Lyssa over to play. I was hesitant to do this because I wasn't sure if it would be mean lots of fighting, which would be more work for me.It turned out to be a nice break for me. It was WONDERFUL!! Tonya, Lyssa's mom, always told me they played wonderfully at her house, but now I believe it. These two girls didn't have one fight or argument over anything. When I knew she was coming over we went to Walmart to stock up on bubbles, and playdough. The bubbles were just a mess, but after lunch the girls played outside for over an hour with it. I was so glad that it was nice out, and they were able to be outside with it because I didn't have to worry about the mess, and a mess they made, but it was easily cleaned. Then they would got from downstairs to outside finding other things to do. At one point they found the water and made mud outside. It was fine until they started walking around in it. I finally had to put a stop to the obvious fun they were having before their fun ended up all over my house!! So, it was the best 3 1/2 hours for me to get things done, and Tegan was completely entertained. We will definitely be doing more of these play dates!! :)
Wednesday was another gorgeous day so after Scout and I dropped Tegan off at school, and cleaned up the morning mess at home we spent the rest of the time at the park until we had to go and get Tegan. Scout loved it. She had all of my attention, and she got to do what she wanted, and that was to swing. I am not kidding she wanted to swing the whole time, so for 2 hours I stood at the swing and pushed her. It was so fun to spend that time with just her. I am realizing more and more that she isn't my baby anymore. I don't feel that I have gotten to spend as much one on one time with her just getting to play, and enjoying just her. She is just an amazing little girl, and I want to get to enjoy every minute of it. Especially because in the fall she will be going to preschool two days a week. It is going by faster than I would like. I wish that she was still little, but I am loving the little person that she is growing into.
Wednesday night I went to YW. It isn't mandatory that I be there, but if I can they said they would like me to be there so I went. I came home and I told Justin, "I don't think this calling is for me." I have a lot of different feelings about this calling, excited, scared, inadequate just to name a few. Anyway, after a long talk with Justin, and him helping me go over my lesson, it is on the Priesthood, I feel a little better about things. We will see after Sunday how I feel.
