My crazy week!

So this week has been insane for me and Melody.  I have inservice all week, but my main problem is that Matt has daily doubles at the exact same time, so childcare is difficult.  Fortunately, we have family in the area, so my mother, mother-in-law, and aunt-in-law have taken turns watching her.  However, 2 out of 3 of these childcare helpers live way out in Gresham, and my school is located on 122nd and Market.  All this to say, I’ve been in the car quite abit this week, which I hate, especially since I have no air conditioning and it’s been in the 80s all week.  And to top this all off, Melody is teething, which means that she’s a little cranky (not very bad, though) and hasn’t been taking all of her naps, which means that, when I’m at home, I get little to nothing done.  So, yes, this has been a stressful week for me.  Fortunately, this only happens once a year.  Once school actually starts, Matt will have the girl most days, and I won’t have to worry about when to pick her up and how I’m going to set my schedule to make sure she gets where she needs to go.  I will, however, really miss spending every minute of every day with her, because she is such a little angel!  I wish I had a rich relative leave me a million dollars so I could never work and just stay at home with my girl (and Matt, too!)  Anyway, I would appreciate everyone’s prayers as I enter this difficult period…pray for sanity for me, health and happiness for Melody, and patience for Matt as he takes over as primary caregiver.
