Nathan tried to make me cereal this morning but we were out of milk.
So I took the kids to the store and we got milk and donuts and ate together.
Dan met us at church. The sermon was about how to live a Christian life in the current day, with technology, culture changes, etc etc. Self-control was a big element in what he said. And making right choices, and living an authentic life, not trying to be a Christian at church and a person of the world when you are out at work or with friends. Loved it!
Came back home, Dan was talking about my back yard, how it slopes toward the house instead of away. We knew it when I bought it but it was on our plan of improvements.
I told him I would call a grader/grading company to have the dirt moved. He said no, call an equipment place, he would do it but needed to rent the equipment to move all the dirt. I told him it was nice of him to offer but it was my yard, I would hire someone to do it. He needed to keep working on his own house...he did not like that answer.
He also grilled me steak for lunch. And while he was grilling he said "I got you some hanging baskets for mother's day. Where can I hang them for you?"
I said, "You got me some baskets?" Cause I figured they were 'from the kids'...He said, "Yeah, I did." And he told me where he thought I would like them hung and he was right.
Anyway he left w/Nathan to go work on the farm. I am going to spend the afternoon with Sydney and we are meeting up to take his granparents for supper (and MIL/FIL). His are the last 2 surviving granparents either of us have. They are totally clueless about our situation, and are not in great health, in their 80s. So I will go b/c I may not see them again.
