This is Abe. \u00a0Lily is at yoga right now. \u00a0Life has been very good in the Darais house lately, and today is no exception. \u00a0Two days ago, Lily and I had a pow-wow about our worsening sleep deprivation and made a plan for gettting more sleep. \u00a0Last night, I slept about seven hours and today I felt great!<\/p>\n

Today was very much a recovery day for Lily. \u00a0Yesterday was a very intense day for her so she caught her breath today as much as she could while still taking care of the children. \u00a0She even had a poetry session with Lydia, teaching her multiple poems! \u00a0Lily told me that Lydia likes the poem, “Grandeur of God” which pleased Lily because that is one of her all-time favorites.<\/p>\n

Work is going really well for me. \u00a0Although I was frustrated this morning about my performance, I had a really good lunch-time walk where I prayed a lot and felt like everything was in God’s hands and progressing as it should. \u00a0Though my afternoon was only mildly successful, I found joy and satisfaction in my work. \u00a0The last work note is that one of my collegues today told me that today was John Steinbeck’s birthday. \u00a0My collegue also told me that East of Eden<\/span> by Steinbeck was one of his all time favorite books. \u00a0Whenever someone reports to me their favorite book, it makes me think I should read it. \u00a0Maybe I’ll get it on audio book?<\/p>\n

At home I had a breif moment with Lily before she left for yoga. \u00a0I then put Mary down because she was so exhausted (she was starting to fade in her high-chair) and then I colored downstairs with Lydia before putting her to bed.<\/p>\n

Tomorrow I have a regional lunch meeting and there will be a competition for the craziest hair. \u00a0I’m determined to participate because I’m interviewing for Region positions on Monday and I want to prove that I know how to have fun…..I have no idea how I am going to do my hair…….I’ll try to have a pic to post tomorrow!<\/p>\n

Speaking of pictures!<\/p>\n
