Time to call it a night.   It has been a fairly easy evening but I am so ready for bed.   I am looking forward to hitting the pillow nad reading for a few pages.  After I got home from the Chiro and started putting the dishes away to make supper, Hubby called and he had left his lights on the needed his car jumped.   So off I went.   The nicest thing of the day was coming home to find out my oldest had done almost all of the weekly cleaning by himself!!  He did all of hubby’s chores, and stripped all the beds and started washing sheets for Erik so all Erik had was trash and dishes, but he hadn’t gotten to mine since he had to pick up the boys for hubby at daycare.  I am still always amazed and grateful when Josh takes it upon himself to do what needs to be done without being asked.  Makes me so very, very happy!   he is a good boy!   This is the other nice thing about having a routine of cleaning like we do…he knows what needs to be done and when.  Good training for him for when he is on his own. 


Erik finished up his chores and both boys received their allowance.  After supper they went off to Target and Erik spent most of his allowance so he will be broke until next week.   But I want him to experience it and learn to handle money.  So the little he gets we are letting him manage and working on that.   BIrhtday money or extra he gets will go into his savings account. 


I ran to the drug store to take all our refills in, 6 between Erik and I ….WOW!   I have our shopping list and menu done so tomorrow morning I will take Tommy with me and we will get groceries.  Tommy has a dentist appointment at 1:00 so I will jsut keep him home with me tomorrow.  I have three grocery stores to run to so I hope he is willing and good. 


Josh leaves on his mission trip tomorrow night.  We will all miss him, but Erik has such a hard time when Josh is gone.  He really misses him. 


Time to read and get some rest…..have a great night!
