Madison joined us tonight at KidPak, a special occasion because it is fall break this week! She doesn't have to get up so early, so she can stay up a bit later - and we're glad she did. It was a nice service tonight, not a small group but rather one where everyone gathered in the auditorium. As such, it was pretty cool to have her with us for the service tonight.
She's going to be quite surprised getting up next week. It is really getting darker and darker each morning when she rises, all leading up to Daylight Saving Time. It has the feel of getting up in the middle of the night, ready to sneak off somewhere. But alas, it's only school.
Of course, not this week. This week has been nice and relaxing. And wet, of course. Nothing but rain, rain, and more rain all week long as the unpronounceable hurricane approaches the coast. Madison and Mommy stayed indoors, keeping busy with crafts, coloring and paper airplanes. Madison has watched the movie "Descendants" a few times more, still amazingly behind on that tally from the national average. Apparently, this is a very popular movie. Daddy learned this firsthand from his presentation the other night at KidPak's small group - the kids admitted to seeing it repeatedly. They knew all the words to the songs, even, and the movie just came out recently.
Madison is close to knowing the words. This is a season of something a little different than Christmas music, and it used to be the "Boo-to-You" parade theme, or other related music. But now, add to that the "Descendants" soundtrack, which Madison insists upon hearing nearly every day. She loves the song "If Only" and "Rotten to the Core" quite a bit, but honestly she'll hear the whole thing from start to finish time and again. It's kind of her thing for the morning ride. Although today, there was no morning ride - it was an evening ride to KidPak.
Speaking of "if only," if only there were no rain this week. We had plans to do something, but we'll have to take a raincheck on all that. There's rain everywhere, even up in Tennessee, and down in Florida. In short, there's nowhere for us to go that is not soaking wet right now. Or even flooding.
But that's okay, because we're having fun together. Madison got to go to KidPak tonight, and we've spent some time together. When asked, she told us she's not quite ready to go back to school yet. That means she's enjoying her time off...
