So Dean is not a worrier by nature, an exact opposite of myself!   So a few days ago, maybe even Sat/Sunday night he told me he was up stressing out about our guests coming in this week.  Our church is hosting a teen conference and we signed up to host.   They sent us a list w/ three teens names, 3 boys.   10-12th graders.   So he said that he was up worrying that we were going to have 4 boys staying with us, to me I didnt see the big deal.  I knew we’d have room no matter what, 3 or 4 or even more.    I got the boys bathed and tried to settle them down but they all were excited about daddy coming home, he has been gone all day.   then my friend came over to keep an eye on them since I knew it would be a tight fit w/ our 3 boys, 3 teens and Dean and I and all of their luggage.   (thanks Minda!)   I got there and it took a while to find Dean, because he was working on tearing down from the concert they had.   I asked him where our boys were, the ones that would be staying w/ us, and he said over there somewhere.  So I waited and then eventually we found them and he told me there were 4 boys.  I just couldnt believe it.  Dean worried about something for once and he was right!! I think it’s so funny.  I didnt stress about this week at all.  My biggest stress of the week is how we’ll all get to church with one vehicle.  Thankfully my friends (who happen to be neighbors too) are helping us out a lot, I dont know what we’d do without them really.  We do so much together it’s amazing….they know how awesome they are! 🙂

so it’s going to be a busy week.  I’m more anxious about my doctors appointment this week than much else going on.   I’m kind of bummed I’m not serving in the area I want to be for this event but I guess something good will come from it, afterall I will be serving others right??   I get to spend a few hours volunteering in childcare tomorrow…what’s the difference between being home w/ your own kids all afternoon or helping keep others kids so they can serve elsewhere, what’s  a few more kids is always my motto.  I just wish my foot wasnt hurting so badly.  Praying for nice weather so they can at least get outside some.   it should be a fun week overall…I’m just not that excited about what I’ll be doing, it’s not nearly as fun as what Dean gets to do all week…..
