Excited about Getting Away

Last night we ran to the store to pick up the things we need to go camping this weekend. WOW, were my girls off the wall the whole time. They were all over the list making sure we weren't forgetting anything. If they weren't all about the list, then they were dancing around in a fog because they could not control themselves. You would think they never get to go camping or on vacation. Granted it has been since last fall that we've gone, but still, you just had to see them.

Their Daddy isn't much better. He is trying his hardest to figure out how he is going to get off early so we can leave earlier then 5:30. I wish him luck, because that rarely happens around his office.

Me, I'm ready to get away and will enjoy it when I get there but at the moment I'm looking at all the work that has to be done before we leave. All the packing isn't done, I'm right in the middle of Girl Scout camp planning, almost the entire crew of Sunday school workers are on Spring Break and I have no idea if there will be enough people to cover Sunday (though we were given "orders" by the pastors to not be there this Sunday), plus this is the start of the next month rotation of workers and I'm not sure they remember that it's their month. This is the first Sunday since launch that I will not be there and it concerns me. Now, make no mistake, the volunteers that work the children's ministry are absolutely awesome and I know without a doubt that they can cover for me. It's just the timing because a lot of people are out. If everyone was going to be there, then I wouldn't worry but I don't know that everyone will be there. I only know of three and it takes for sure 5 to put all three areas (Bible Excursion, ECA and Nursery) together. I know that God will handle it and make sure everything that NEEDS to be done will be, but it's the extra stuff that I like to have for the kids so that it is even more special that I hate not to be there.

My thoughts are overwhelming me so I guess I'd better stop.
