Our house is filled with lovely songs from Emma's VBS. She will sing "Jesus Loves Me" at the top of her lungs several times a day as well as several other diddys that she has learned. It is so fun to see the joy she has in learning!

Today I watched as the yahoos, I mean, the highly talented absent minded cement crew came to yet again fix my driveway square off against the professional team that was putting in a whole driveway across the street. They would pause in their work to ogle across the road and see what the other is doing. Already the stuff across the street looks better. Oh well, when you don't have extra money to give them, you have to take the best you can get from them.

Having Jay home is great! I look forward to it and so do the girls. Today I drove Madeline past where he was working. I think she was as stunned as I was that he was right down the road!

As I was making dinner today and Emma, Madeline and Jay were playing in the front yard. Emma told Jay that there was "a whole lot of shit in the front yard, shit everywhere" It was true that there were toys everywhere, but geez. I think that I am guilty for that one.
