Okay, strange title I know. I have a jar in my "sentimental" box down stairs, from Sister Smith. It has like 5 or 6 walnuts and like 2 cups of rice. When you add the rice first you can not get the walnuts in, but if you add the nuts first then add the rice, everything fits perfect. As you can guess, the rice is all the things in our day that we need/want to do, and the walnuts are the things that God wants us do in us, for us, through us. :) That's how I felt this morning! And Praise the Lord, I made it! :D
Tonight I really hope to make myself sit down and grade some papers... :/ And make copies for some assiments for the twins. I can see June 7th at the end of my tunnel! That should be our last day of school for the year. I'm thinking I will have the twins do some spelling this summer... I know I'm a mean mom ;) But they need it!! Spelling a few times a week is not too bad, right....? Everthing else can wait untill fall.
God blessed us SO, SO much this weekend with selling Pizza Cards. We are about half way to what we need for camp! We feel very blessed.
Tonight I will have Olivia for a little bit :) She's a hoot! I bet she'll be bummed out that Uncle Dave is not home yet ;) He is her fav!
Thanks for the prayers and support for our fund raiser. We appreciate it.

I remember that lesson - some things just stick with you! : )
Thanks for the reminder~
I still have a quart jar of walnuts and rice. I've considered throwing it out several times, but it's such a good reminder. Every time I see it I remind myself to make sure my priorities are in check. GOD FIRST, everything else second. When we put God first, He will make sure all the other "important" stuff will get done. Without fail! He's a GOOD God!
