My day!

I took a day off from deep cleaning to spend the whole day with my niece Selena. We took a ride WAY out in the country to a great saddle shop. Then we headed to the feed store to get some feed for my horse. We stopped at Chick Fil A for lunch - my "new" favorite item to get there is the 3 piece chicken strip kids meal. I didn't know they had this - I thought they only offered the chicken nuggets for the kids meals. I am so excited because that meal is only $3.26 with tax and it fills me up :-) After lunch we headed home and Selena took a nap. I checked the computer and I was so excited to see an email from Carlos. This is the first communication I have had since he left the US. He said things are going great and all of their meetings have been standing room only. He will be home Thursday night and he asked me not to plan anything on Friday. He said he wants to spend the whole day together - lunch, Christmas shopping - dinner later that night and then a movie. I can't wait until he gets home but I know the souls/lives that were impacted was worth him being gone for a while. Alexia called me after school and said that Chick Fil A wanted her to come back for a second interview. She called me about an hour later and told me she got the job. I am so excited for her this is her first "real" job. She needs money for gas and her cell phone :-) I think she said she starts this Saturday. Oh, and by the way, she and her friend Nate have decided to stop the "courting" process. They both decided that they just want to be friends and to concentrate on their walks with the Lord right now. Selena went home around 5:30 and I didn't feel like cooking big so I made Belgium Waffles. Every once in a while we like breakfast for dinner :-) Now, my little ones are tucked in bed and asleep so I am going to finish this blog and then do some reading for a little bit before I call it a night. Here is a picture of Alexia minutes after her getting her first job!!!
