Day 14 of Thanksgiving

Hmm, it's late and I've got to get to bed, but I didn't want to skip my day of thankfulness. Today I am thankful for people lazy Sunday mornings and for the fact that Jerry isn't the finance clerk anymore. Church doesn't start till 1:00, and actually I hate the 1-4 schedule. It is awful with Sydney's nap schedule, and now with the time change, it's dark when we get out of church. But today, it was actually a nice lazy morning, and the kids were playing nice and happily with each other.
As far as part two of my thankful post. Jerry had been the finance clerk in our ward for over 5 years, so he has had to stay after church to do tithing for the last five years. Not a huge deal. And I wasn't upset about it, but it was sure nice today (even though he's been released for a few months already - it hit me again today) that he got to come home with us. AND I also realized today that it's getting close to tithing settlement time, and he won't have to be gone every Tuesday and Sunday night through Christmas! However - he does have another calling with even more time demands. But the Sunday meetings are before church, and when church doesn't start till 1:00 I can handle him being gone for a couple hours. NOW, in January when church starts at 9, and he's at meetings before church, and I have to get all three kids ready by myself and be on time - which we can't even seem to do now - then I won't be so grateful :P ) Just kidding.
