today

so, today. . .
ellen was playing in my purse. she bit a chunk out of a tootsie pop and put it back in my wallet. she chewed three pieces of gum and then spit them out into my checkbook. she licked and licked my lip gloss.
lane re-scraped his scraped-up knee and got to eat ice cream with dad.
davis had me laughing a lot today. he started vbs tonight.
evan has fought a fever all day. (and yesterday)
i have cried on the phone to a friend, tried to comfort a fever-y baby, fussed at and laughed with my kids, ate cheese-its for lunch, swept up lots of goldfish pretzels, failed at trying to get lane's lego man up some stairs on his computer game, prayed for a friend, piled up enormous amounts of post-weekend laundry, watched food network star, made lists, tried to organize stuff for small group on wednesday, cleaned the kitchen twice, made dinner for a change, spent too much time on the computer.
tomorrow i plan to. . .
take my little-est to the doctor, fuss less, apply sunscreen better than i did over the weekend, console ellen when she doesn't get to go swimming with her brothers by giving her some my little pony gummies, be a better wife, spend less time on the computer, and keep my purse out of ellen's reach.
