A few things I have decided lately.
Spring Break was too short.
Teaching is a difficult job.
Nothing can replace good friends.
My hair has grown really long.
My kids keep me going.
Cars are great when they work.
I am tired, therefore I need to look at my life and see what I can do to be balanced.
Kneaders is proving to be a problem. Especially their sugar cookies. Dang.
The Renaissance Fair is really weird.
It is like all of the Dungeons and Dragons crowd comes out to celebrate. And, I have never been so grateful to actually NOT fit in. People watching at its finest.
with my children about modesty. Especially, when the 60 year old woman walked by with a chain mail bikini on. Yes. They actually make those! Who knew? I asked Aydan, “What if Grandma wore that?” He looked at me and said GROSS. MOM that is gross. I said do you NOW see why modesty is important. The next day at church I said, “Do you see all of these women at church?” He said, yes. I said, “Don’t they look beautiful? They are all dressed modestly. Do you see the difference from yesterday?” We then discussed why modest IS really the hottest.
The Festival was fun. I think everyone should go at least once. That was my very first time. However, I think Spanish Sassafras summed it up when we were driving out of the parking lot to go home as a man dressed like a pirate walked by, “IF I see ONE MORE Jack Sparrow it will be too soon.” In fact, I wasn’t sure that pirates HAD a large part in the Renaissance, OR Star Trek People, Clone Troopers and EVEN Captain America but they were all there.
