Laura, I had just this same experience on Tuesday/Wednesday of this week. I was feeling very run down with my pregnancy and finally spent an afternoon in prayer asking God to help me surrender to Him. I began to feel much better and had an optimistic view. Then, next thing I knew Wednesday morning, little Zoey came to make her appearance! Good things happen when we are able to surrender.

I am always ask God to make things loud clear for me.
I had the same sitution like your long winded friend. We babysat for them. I suppose it could be a new blog but I quit b/c the kids were always sick do to their lifestyle. Now I enjoyed the kids but my family comes first. I don’t want my kids sick. She wouldn’t listen any of us about it. There is a point that you have to say no. What good is it going to do if you get burned out doing something for others if it gets to be to much.? I have another chance to help out by sewing a blanket hem on some blankets. I can do this when ever or as many as fits my schedule. This may sound to easy but it is something at this time.
What a great way for your boys to contribute. I love it when I include my kids.

Great post, thanks for doing meals on wheels. My grandmother is in that program and she really appreciates the meals.
Thanks for the Pepsi encouragement.
