Hello, I pray that you had a fabulous day today and stayed indoors if you are in an area that has a high temperature. Today was quite the adventure but before I talk about today, I wanted to talk about yesterday. So we weren't able to make it to church due to not getting hardly any sleep. I have found that for the last two nights I have had anxiety issues... Avery has been doing extremely well! Every since he got his toys back he has picked up every single mess that he has made! I don't even have to ask twice! Praise the Lord!!! So we had a Narnia day, yes we watched all 3 Narnia dvds... It happens to be Avery's favorite and mine too! I sure do wish they would hurry up and come out with a 4th one... Even knowing it is real cool in our home, I brought out the fan so I would be able to sleep better... So last night I prayed and I sung some songs to help with my anxiety. It worked! I finally got some sleep and the best part, God gave me peace!!!
Okay so now we are at what has happened today... I was up at 6:30am this morning and Avery got up at 7am. We had a wonderful breakfast, listened to some positive Christian music, and I was able to get my prayer, devotion, and Bible reading/studying done! After that we got ready for the day and walked quite a ways to where we needed to go, got some errands done and then headed to go visit grandma's! Avery loves his grandma and his uncle Randy! So we visited for awhile... Avery is doing real well on his potty training, everywhere he goes he lets me know now... It's nice to know that when you stick with something long enough you will see the results and I am seeing the results!!!! I bought him a new pack of big boy underwear today so that he has plenty... So we have had plenty of sun today, thank goodness I put sunscreen on Avery & I...
So while Avery stayed with grandma and uncle Randy, one of my good friends who is like a mom figure to me came and took me to go pick up Avery's birthday present and get some stuff that was needed. So Avery's early Birthday present is a Little Tikes basketball set that adjusts all the way to 6 ft! Grandma and uncle Randy paid half and I paid the other half. So as we speak it is hiding in my room and when he goes to bed tonight I am going to set it up for him!!!! So when he gets up in the morning and goes outside in his backyard he will see it!!!! I am hoping to get a picture of his facial expression when he sees it... So I got him some Lightning McQueen fruity flavor toothpaste, he seemed so excited he said "oh I think we need to go brush our teeth momma!" I told him he could wait until after dinner, lol... I can't believe my baby is going to be 5 years old.... Also since my birthday is 2 days before his, I got myself a birthday present! I got me a Brit Nicole cd "gold" one of my favorite songs!!! I also got a BBQ utensil set and a stick lighter. I am doing my first BBQ of the 4th of July!!!
So after we got everything we needed from Wally world, we dropped everything off at our home, went and got Avery and did some much needed grocery shopping.... So we got all the grocery shopping done and I may say Avery did a good job at the store!!!! He has come a long ways and I know that if I keep teaching him what is acceptable, what is not acceptable, and give consequences if he tests me, he will be a gentle, humble, respectful young boy and someday a young man... God has truly blessed us with soooo much and Avery and I are so very grateful!!!! Have a blessed night all....
