Wednesdays.........

Wednesdays........ they are just crazy days. I feel like I don't stop running. Of course the mornings are hectic. Scriptures,getting the kids dressed, making beds and lunches, doing the dishes and some how getting myself dressed. I drive Wes to school then I take the other kids to school a half an hour later. Then I do any shopping or errands ran. I came home made up some food for Brent to take on his hunt. Then Wyatt, Ella and I went to a birthday party at the park. The kids got of school early today, luckily a friend of mine at the party was going to the middle school and she picked up Wes. Then after the party I took Wes, Ella and Wyatt home switched the laundry and threw the clean laundry on the bed. Left to pick up Ashtyn and Trett. Took Trett to find some new glasses. Came back home switched the laundry again and threw the new load on the bed with the other load. Made up some more food for Brent to take. Did homework with Trett and colored a picture with Wyatt. Realized I needed to have the whites washed so Brent could have clean undies for the hunt. Switched the laundry again. Looked at the clock and thought I will turn on the oven and give it ten min to warm up. I think I will lay down for those ten min. lay down and start to relax when I feel a little nose next to mine with a sweet little voice saying will you make me a peanut butter sandwich. Yes in just a min just give me a few minutes. A few moments later I smell a banana under my nose with the same sweet voice, can you peel this for me. Then another little voice I'm hungry too can I have a cinnamon roll or are you giving those to someone? I realize I must peel myself off the couch. Make lunch and cook the cinnamon rolls. Brent comes home and I help him get a few things together before he leaves. Potty the kids and get Trett and Wes to get things on and together for practice. Fill water bottles and head off to football practice. Drop off Weston then head to Trett's practice drop him off ( we usually divide and conquer but with Brent gone I was on my own. Normally one of us stays with Trett). Left Trett and went and got Ashtyn from an achievement day activity. Drove her to piano in Thatcher. Usually we have soccer in Thatcher then she goes to piano afterwards. Left her at piano and went back to Safford and to pick up Trett. Watched Trett finish practice and headed back to pick up Ashtyn in Thatcher at piano. Got home vacumed the suburban and helped Ashtyn with homework. Loaded everyone up once again and picked up Wes from football practice. He took a quick shower and then we were off again to mutual. I asked him to find a ride home. Dinner, dishes hugs and kisses. I am tired and am very grateful for Brent's help when he is here. When do I fold the laundry, spend quality time with the kids, clean up my camping mess and my house, work on the food storage and all of the other stuff we are suppose to do? I am going to push all the laundry off the bed and climb in. I'll take it one day at a time.
