Busy Wednesday

This is turning out to be one busy week.  Today I worked and my lovely friend Karen was so gracious to watch Katie and Allie the entire day!  Usually Katie and Allie attend New Horizons on the days that I work but with Vacation Bible School going on all week, they would have missed a day at church.  Karen's daughter Emily, who is also 4, really wanted the girls at VBS.  I dropped the girls off at Emily's house at 7:30 and all of the girls were super excited.  Karen took them to and from church and then watched the girls until about 4:30.  The girls made thank you cards for their teachers, played outside, played dress up and read a lot of books.  Karen said at one point she had 3 girls dressed up and walking around her kitchen in high heels.  After Todd picked up the girls, we all headed to soccer.  Katie and Allie took turns playing on the red team.  Katie played pretty well but Allie just wanted to sit on my lap and cuddle.  I think everyone was pretty tired  (Emily was in bed by 7:00.)  Allie got her spunk back at the end of the game when it was her turn to hand out the snacks that we brought for the team.  I am beginning to think that the best part of soccer for my girls is the snack at the end!  I am so thankful for all of the nice and generous people in my life.
