Last week was beeaauuutiful. We spent most of our days swimming at the pool and relaxing.
I'm trying to get Roman to swim across the pool in the "deep" end. I can still touch so it must not be that deep. One of the advantages of still being taller than him, but not for much longer. So far he has made it half way!
Of course we did have a few rainy spells..
But we managed to keep ourselves entertained :)
You would be surprised how very entertaining dry ice can be. It is a fun science experiment too. We learned how dry ice doesn't melt into a liquid like normal ice hence why it is called dry ice. It evaporates into a gas when it "melts". And it all costed about $2.
Also it makes crazy screaming noises.
So we took turns trying to do cool things with it.
If your feeling stuck go get some dry ice (don't touch it with your fingers!) and put it in a bowl of warm water or spray it with a hose in the lawn. I guarantee your kids will be entertained. Or do something creative with corn starch. That's always been a good, cheap entertainment tool as well.
I understand sometimes being a nanny can make you feel, well... trapped. Make sure you take 5 (or 20) for yourself today and everyday.
Psalm 42
As a deer pants for flowing streams,
so pants my soul for you, O God.
2 My soul thirsts for God,
for the living God.
When shall I come and appear before God?
3 My tears have been my food
day and night,
while they say to me all the day long,
“Where is your God?”
4 These things I remember,
as I pour out my soul:
how I would go with the throng
and lead them in procession to the house of God
with glad shouts and songs of praise,
a multitude keeping festival.
5 Why are you cast down, O my soul,
and why are you in turmoil within me?
Hope in God; for I shall again praise him,
my salvation 6 and my God.
My soul is cast down within me;
therefore I remember you
from the land of Jordan and of Hermon,
from Mount Mizar.
7 Deep calls to deep
at the roar of your waterfalls;
all your breakers and your waves
have gone over me.
8 By day the Lord commands his steadfast love,
and at night his song is with me,
a prayer to the God of my life.
9 I say to God, my rock:
“Why have you forgotten me?
Why do I go mourning
because of the oppression of the enemy?”
10 As with a deadly wound in my bones,
my adversaries taunt me,
while they say to me all the day long,
“Where is your God?”
11 Why are you cast down, O my soul,
and why are you in turmoil within me?
Hope in God; for I shall again praise him,
my salvation and my God.
