There are some mornings that it's so difficult to get out of bed. I'm not sure why it's so hard especially on a Sunday morning. On the average morning, we're up and around before the time that we have to be at church, but Sundays for some reason are difficult. Of course, we stayed up too late, albeit for a good reason. One of Jerad's friends from high school came by to chat late in the night. We had a good time catching up and meeting his girlfriend...actually fiance, since he just proposed yesterday. So because we've been staying up way too late, it was really difficult to wake up. In fact, I didn't wake up until 10:15 and with church starting at 10:30, I didn't think we would make it in time. Instead, I chose to watch church online. I love it that John Maxwell tweets when he's preaching a sermon that will be broadcast online. I want to make it a point this year that if we don't make it to church to watch it online or on tv. His sermon was about second chances, highlighting on Jonah and mentioning several others throughout the Bible who were given second chances.
We took the boys to the movie to see Avatar this evening. Surprisingly, Brickman stayed awake for the entire (almost three hour) movie. He falls asleep in practically every movie that we go to. The most memorable time that he fell asleep was when he also started sleep walking and talking, thinking that he was playing with Riley and yelling at him to come to him. Then he attempted to eat his bag of popcorn like a hamburger, bag and all. The boys have been begging to spend the night at their grandparents over the Christmas break, and tonight is the last night of that, so we took them there after the movie.
I really am going to miss the boys when they go back to school. I've enjoyed having them here at the house, despite the occasional fight. We still have tomorrow, since it's an inservice day for the teachers, but it will be good to get back into a schedule on Tuesday.
