Friday, senior night, and another weekend

We have made it to another Friday!  The weeks are flying by.  Next week at this time will be the last day of January.  I am rarely sad to see January end.  Can't really complain about the cold this year since we haven't had much, but still ready to move into February.

Tonight is senior night.  My heart is breaking a little, as this is Catherine's final high school senior sport recognition.  Wasn't she just finishing preschool?  I am still completely heart-broken that no one is coming for her special evening.  My sister was very apologetic about it, and there is nothing I can do about it, but it breaks my heart just the same.

Tomorrow the kids and I get to sleep in, and Andrew doesn't have to be up terribly early although he does have baseball.  Because of that, the chances of me getting to sleep as late as I would like are pretty slim, because even if he doesn't wake me, the dog will.  I don't have to leave my house tomorrow if I don't want, and I'm excited about that.  The kids have an all day away swim meet, and Andrew has to work at the hockey game in the evening.

Sunday is going to be a long day at church.  We have a meeting at 9, then the service at 10, and finally the annual meeting is after church.  The last two years things have gone fairly quickly, but there is a new "vision statement" that is expected to be somewhat controversial.  Shouldn't be, but the older members don't like change, and everyone who does want change has their own idea of what should be said.  I anticipate this being longer than I would prefer.

Life is moving along so very quickly.  I am grateful for the moments I have with my family!  And I am especially grateful that today is Friday!
