Heaven

With all this Rapture talk, I am starting to wonder if the rapture is really going to happen.  Not to sound, you know, crazy.  I believe that a rapture will occur SOMEDAY, but tomorrow?  Nah! 

In the past 2 weeks I have heard many people talk about their last day on earth.  What should they do?  Running a marathon their last earthly day, eating boxes of cookies, wearing something special...it has all kind of been a joke.  My mom has been talking a lot about the rapture and we have been joking about some small things that come a long with the uncertainty. 

So, tonight I was actually wondering what would I want to do on my last day on earth.  I kind of like this life and want to enjoy so many more things on this earth.  Thinking to myself...I really am not ready to go to Heaven quite yet.  I know He knows that perfect time where we leave our precious loved ones and are placed at his right hand.  I thought earth sounded so good until I was writing a thank you email to my amazing mother.  I thanked her again for watching Carsen so I was able to have some girl time with some friends and told her I would see her tomorrow in Heaven at 6:01 P.M. in the candy isle...totally joking of course, and then stated, Carsen will be running around giving hugs.    Whoa...I know.

I thought to myself, OH MY!  That is what I think Heaven will be like.  Eating candy and watching my precious little boy run and give hugs.  How I long to see him run and how I want to feel his hugs.  I know this occurs in many mom's every day life, but this would be my idea of Heaven.  Pure JOY!

I assure you, I haven't gone nuts!!  Just realize what I have to look forward to someday!

Monday Fun!

I had the day off yesterday.  That means, no work, no therapy, no plans and nothing in my calendar for Monday.  Just Carsen and I.  How lovely it was.

However, I did 3 load of towels, 4 loads of clothes, cleaned 4 bathrooms, 3 bedrooms...stuff had to get done.

Carsen loves to watch the laundry!

We did include some fun time.  We made gooey butter bars.  Sounds healthy right?



He loved cleaning the bowl out!



He approved!


And the best part of my day...we had plenty of time to work on giving kisses!! He was giving many kisses to me throughout the day.  Very sweet sloppy kisses!  Then when daddy got home, he decided he deserved one!  He loves his daddy!  Matt loves his kisses, even though they are wide open and sloppy!  To have our son show us love is one of the best gifts!!



Love!
