The name says it all.

Well, God is good. And his mercies truly are new every morning. Just ask Caleb, who is back to his charming, sweet self today. :)

We've had a pretty fantastic day so far. The weather is beautiful, the kids have been happy, and I'm feeling pretty good overall. I am quite over my own lack of motivation for all things remotely resembling exercise, so pray that I get past this slump. I would SO much rather sit out on my patio in the sun with a great book than go sweat on the treadmill. I have about 4 or 5 books that I am currently reading, and I would so much rather spend time on one of them instead of working out. But... as I looked through pictures of Brianna's horseback riding lessons that were taken this morning, I couldn't help but notice how my own rump is rivaling that of the pony she rides. Ewww. I suppose the treadmill will somehow have to fit into my afternoon nap-time activities. Maybe right between mopping the kitchen and paying the bills. I guess time in the sun will have to come once the kids are awake (which means no relaxing and no reading, but hey, they're more fun anyway!)

My gardens are coming along nicely. Today I noticed that I officially have 4 tomatoes so far. Two are pretty big and will be ripening soon, one is about the size of a ping pong ball, and the other is marble sized. And there are multiple other flowering fruit-bearing shoots that will hopefully start producing soon too! How exciting. I harvested my first crop of radishes this weekend- the ones that grew on the front porch. It was a pretty pitiful grouping, only 3 worth eating out of a handful of plants. But I actually ate something I grew from seed! And Brianna just finished off the last of her cherries from her tree- she got a whole THREE this year! The garlic has sent up central shoots, so it will soon be time for me to read up on harvesting and drying that. I'm praying for a nice harvest of garlic, I'd like to replant some and still have plenty to cook with this summer.

Well, I suppose that is enough random musings for the day. I am off to start one of the naptime chores. Hmmmm, where to begin. Happy afternoon!
