Its hockey tournament weekend!
Saturday's games were all in the afternoon! Blessed timing.
Sunday's games are at 6:00 AM and 7:45 AM.
Translation: Must be at the rink between 5:20 and 5:30. Must leave by 5 AM. Must be up with Hockey Player at 4 AM. He needs breakfast and to get the blood moving. He might need to shower again to clear his chest, throat and sinuses. He has been fever free for 7 days. BUT the previous 8 days to those seven were filled with fevers and crud.
But we will not have to juggle hockey with church. We will be done with plenty of time to get to Sunday School and church. Woo Hoo.
But first we must get all the children to bed.
"Flutter Nutter if you want to go to the hockey games, you need to get to bed."
FN: I want to go! I love hockey games !
Mom: They are really early. REALLY EARLY. You won't be able to get up if you don't get to bed.
FN: I love EARLY. Sometimes I get up when it is still dark early. Like Midnight early. I LOOOVVVVEEE Early ! !
Mom: Then off to bed.
Honestly he does love early. We have two that are up before the rest of us more often than not. Little Princess and Flutter Nutter. It can be a toss up between which will be up first. Sometimes, though, we think it is Little Princess, but Flutter Nutter has curled up in a corner with a blanket and his DS. He knows he isn't to play his DS in the morning till he has his stuff done. But I guess when you get up and it is like Midnight dark outside Early, you know you can get some play time in.
"Everything in the heavens and earth is yours, O Lord, and this is your kingdom. We adore you as being in control of everything. Riches and honor come from you alone, and you are the Ruler of all mankind; your hand controls power and might and it is at your discretion that men are made great and given strength" -1 Chronicles 29:11-12

The 'F' word and conversations Mom overhears after church
Coming home from church! Yep, from church. I hear the following conversation in my back seat.
Unfortunately, I can't distinguish which child said what, so I will just abbreviate AC for another child to introduce the next speaker.
"You said the F word!"
AC: "You shouldn't say the F word"
My eyebrows are raised and my curiousity is peaked, still listening.
AC (I think Futter Nutter): "I know what the F word is, it is FAT !! "
AC: But your not suppose to say it.
AC: I know what the S word is!
more eyebrows
AC: Don't say it!
The conversation changes and I am curious.
MOM: What is the S word?
Daddy's Buddy: Loud and Proud : STUPID!
MOM: Yep, that is a bad word. We shouldn't say that one.
Daddy's Buddy: BUT YOU asked me.
MOM: Yes, I did. That was okay. But no more.
Daddy's Buddy: What is cussing?
Mom: Anytime we use mean words to try and hurt someone. Ugly, mean words.
Children: ohhh, okay
On the way home from church ! ? !
What were they discussing in their Awana Groups????
