Mr. Maggots/Attacker

Last night my hubby got the privledge of getting to go to a professional basketball game VIP. He got to go early and get autographs, have parking, courtside seats etc. Needless to say, he was very excited and had a great time.

I had a counseling session with a couple and had my kids in the next room. Interesting but it worked. Ha! The session was very intense and I would covet your prayers for the couple. Since the kids were so patient and willing to wait and have great attitudes I decided to reward them. So, we were going to a pizza place that has fun games and stuff to do. As we were heading there my son said "Mom, there it is! Mr. Maggots is right there!" I started laughing hard and asking him what he was talking about. He asked why I was laughing and said he was talking about the pizza place we were going to. I laughed harder then finally got my composure and told him I just got tickled because if the name was Mr. Maggots no one would probably want to eat there. Then we talked about what maggots were and he remembered and he and sister began laughing with me.

My daughter is so funny to wake up. When she is in deep sleep and you try to wake her she wrestles you. She just swings arms and flops about. However, if you keep at it, when she really begins to rouse, she becomes so soft and sweet. It is really funny. It seems that when she is in that place between sleep and conscienceness you better watch out for the attack. She just came in telling me she couldn't find the bug spray. I asked when she'd had it and she said "Day after tomorrow I think." Too cute!

that is so funny about the maggots! there is a lady I work with who told me of a time where she drove past a church and thought it said, "Christ the Reindeer Church" (of course, it was really Christ the Redeemer Church). she says she does that a lot. :-)
i will definitely be praying for that couple and for their hope and strength for whatever they're going through to be found in God.
I didn't know you were a counselor. that's really cool. :-)

thanks always for the laughs! :-)

Oh brother, I don't think you blocked it out. ;-)

Those stories are so cute. They gave me a good laugh. I better go to bed now to get some brain rest because the last time I used it was day after tomorrow, I think.
