I have started 2 different posts about this week, but they just seem to be too detailed and drag on. So lets try again...
Tuesday we found out we had lice. Grace, Hope, Joy & I all had (are in the process of trying to make sure we do not still have) them. If you have not done lice before... well, count you blessings and pray to be spared this trial. All of our hair has been combed through at least twice with the nit comb. An hour process per head, per time. We thought we were in the clear, but this morning I found a new live one on Hope, so we kept her home from school and started all over again. When I finished combing her out again, I put my hand on her head and prayed for the end of lice on her. We will see.
You know your week has taken a turn for the worse when you look in the back seat and see two of your kids inspecting each other for lice.
This week Chad or I have been busy every night. On the good nights we have been together by 8, on the not so good ones closer to 10. However, we have had some good talks as he combed through my hair with a nit comb. :/ A mixed blessing to be sure!
I am exhausted. Chad & I have been staying up late to talk and the continuing saga of lice is taking its tole on my emotions.
I am hoping that the lice are gone. Tonight will be working on Grace & Joy's hair again, "just in case."
I am thankful that we are only 2 weeks away from adoption day. (and that the "Lice Debacle of 2013" is happening now and not then!)
In good other news. My Thirty-One Party went great. I am getting several new things and hopefully I will be able to get more organized. :)
So that is my week... in a nit shell.
I'm glad your sense of humor is still in tact. :) I've been praying for you.
