First Mass

This morning was definitely not as easy as yesterday.  The newness of school had already worn out and since today was the first school Mass it also meant that there were more clothes to put on and get all straightened out.  John Michael decided that he needed McDonald's and even paid for it because it is like I told him, we just do not have the money.  I guess he really wanted it.  As soon as I can I will have to give him that back, I do not like him paying for food, even though there was food here that he could have eaten and tomorrow he will eat. 
We made it to the school and I am seriously thankful.  Because we had gotten up a little late there was no caffiene for momma and I was not going to use John Michael's money to buy some so I was groggy to say the least.  I just prayed and sang!  Music always helps get the juices flowing.
After a quick pose for pictures since it was the first Mass day the boys headed into class and I headed to the office to fill out the new hire packet, which took almost an hour.  There was a lot.  Tomorrow we will go through it all, hopefully I got it done. 
I headed to Mass with the boys.  I love going to the school Masses and today was a Holy Day of Obligation.  It is so awesome to be around so many children who are growing in their faith daily and to be with Jesus.  It is one reason why Wednesday is my favorite weekday.
After Mass I headed to Lakeshore for the drug test that I needed to take for the Diocese.  I will say this was a very humbling experience.  Glad that it is done.  I had to giggle at the girl in there who would not leave without her results and was shocked that I was not waiting for mine.  I  told her that there was nothing to wait on I know that the results will be fine, unless Dayquil shows up.  The sad part about this is she had two children with her.  I hope that whatever she is on she can get some help.
Then it was time to high tail it back to the school to show them where I had been there and to get to work.  It was another great day at work.  I really love it.  Being with the kids is so much fun!  Today we played kickball and basketball and a whole mess of other things.  The boys had great days at school and wore themselves out at after school care.
Mom had dinner ready when we got home, that is so nice!  Tonight was meatloaf, corn, turnip greens, and corn bread.  After dinner the boys were in the shower and in their beds, they were tired.  I have to admit I am looking forward to bed myself.  I am going to edit for a little while and then head that way.
