Realized I do not want to have four kids. Jeremy and I house/babysat for four kids this weekend. There were twins (17), a 15 and 11 year old. They were wonderful kids but I am used to having time by myself. There was not really any time to myself this weekend! They constantly wanted to be entertained. I know it was mainly due to the fact that they hardly get to see me and wanted to have a lot of fun. But now that I'm older I really like to have my down time on the weekends. Especially after a few crazy weeks at work. Last night I told Jeremy that once we have children I doubt I will be able to read. I have a slight problem when I read because the world does not exist for me and poor Jeremy has to pull the book away to gain my attention. So children = no reading. Hmmm I think I might want to wait another year or two until we start trying. I just love reading way too much right now!
This week so far has been going well. Only one more day of work and then we have Friday and Monday off! Technically we kind of have Tuesday off because there are no students here and then Thursday and Friday of next week I am gone on a retreat with the 11th and 12th graders. So next week will be an easy week!
This weekend is Easter! The day we celebrate Jesus dying for us and overcoming death to rise again. We had a chapel on that today and heard the song from Don Francisco, He's Alive. If you get a chance to hear it I recommend it! It really gives a great glimpse into that day.

tina! although having kids takes a lot of time and energy, you will not lose doing the things that you love. (do you know how many hours a day i surf the internet? and i have a 10 month old!)
fear not, my friend. :) also, when you do start to have kids, you get to grow with them. you won't (unless you are VERY fertile haha!) have four right off the bat. i completely recommend having kids. they are awesome awesome awesome! it makes you appreciate your husband more too because you get to see what you've made together, and you get to see him be a daddy, and nothing can replace that.
okay... now i've gone sappy. i enjoyed reading your post today!
