I prayed for a Black Hole...

to suck up my kids this morning. 

Oh My, they had plucked my last nerve and they were funny while they were doing it. 

I told my daughter that she was "riding my very last nerve".  And her response was "on the motorcycle or in the car?"  Which is followed by the run around the corner and that cute little laugh that they do when they know that they have just shocked you into submission.

Then Mr. Du walks into my craft room and says to me, "Mama, you are the bee's knees."  I tell him that all the time.  And of course it is followed by "Gimme some sugars!!"  Lips poked out from here to there.

All Ziggy kept saying was "I need a kiss."  Ok, after the 5 millionth kiss, I was like no more kisses and then he would come back for another kiss and I would give him one and then again say no more kisses and he would come back again.  This went on for about 45 minutes.

I really wanted to scream but it turned into an emotional drain with a bunch of giggles.

You know the type of morning where all you can do is look at the clock and pray for nap time.

After I realized that it was only 9:30am and I had a long time to wait, my phone rang.

It was their Uncle OB, my Brother in Law.  He asks me can he come get the kids and can they spend the night.

See all you have to do is ask and you shall receive.  My Black Hole was there all along!!!

I got those kids ready, packed up some food, pj's and toothbrushes and sent them on their merry way.

I got my next project to the point where I need to let it dry for a few hours and now I am going upstairs to take a nap, finish this up and take some photos.

So the lesson of the day is... 

If you need a Black Hole, just ask.  I am sure that one is only a phone call away.

until we meet again,

Does that work for husbands too? I don't know how many times Mark has asked today--what are you doing? AND I just started doing....
Enjoy the time.
