The pastor’s wife managed to make it to church! Wooohooooo!!! This has been a rare event this year due to Daniel being sick, me being sick, Daniel being in a mood, and me being my normal insomniac self. Two weeks ago, I planned to go but my little alarm clock let me sleep until 11:00… when church was over. (How Daniel slept in and let me sleep that long boggles my mind.) Last week, I was with my parents and probably could have gone to the church I attended in high school and on breaks in college but Daniel would have complicated things. This week, I was awake on time and determined to make the effort to go.

So… Daniel was a muted version of himself. He was content to go open and close the bathroom doors and the sanctuary doors and thankfully, he can do that quietly. Yes, it’s not ideal and yes, it does disturb some people but I’m blessed to have a congregation who is chill with that (for the most part) if it means that he and I are in church. Metanoia peeps, I love you muchly. (Metanoia is my codename for the congregation Jon pastors.) Having an usher who is beyond awesome and willing to keep an eye on Daniel so I can sit and maybe participate in some of worship was good.

So here are the pics:

I posed with Daniel because cooperative cats were in short supply. (I think Edda was in her cell meditating as she is the abbess.)

The details…
Shirt: Foot Locker
Skirt: Hand me down from my sister-in-law
Flip-flops: Old Navy

Daniel is dressed in a shirt and shorts from Kohl’s which were a gift last year from a neighbor of my in-laws.

A close up of my flower:

All the mothers at church received them today. They were crocheted by one of the women in the church (who is the closest mom to my age) and they are beautiful.

Before I go, please go read this by Kelly @ This Ain’t the Lyceum which is making me want to fly to New Jersey and bow down and kiss her feet.

Finally, go love up the other beautiful women at Fine Linen and Purple.
