Today

I'm tired today, but can't go to bed for another hour and a half or more, which will put it almost 4:00 am in my time zone. Sometimes having my husband working only 3 minutes away from home is a pain! He likes to come home for lunch, which I understand, but I don't always want to be up that late/early.

We had a homeschoolers get together this morning. The kids played games with a parachute, they got wrapped all up in big stretchy-fabric circles and played games in there, they learned about finding things in common with other people, that we are all connected. It was actually pretty neat. The adults just got to watch, but it was still nice to get him out of the house and playing with other kids.

He is having a grand time playing with James, the boy he met at church. They have a lot of fun together, and even when they disagree, they manage to work it out themselves fairly quickly and move on to the next thing. I think that's pretty neat.

After the homeschool party, we had to go to the laundromat and do our laundry. The attendant listens to a christian music station and one of the songs said something about looking into Jesus' big blue eyes and looking at his curly brown hair. Jesus didn't have blue eyes. People seem to have forgotten that Jesus was a Middle-Eastern Jew. He was not a blue eyed Northern European. He was dark skinned, dark eyed and dark haired. I just think it's kind of funny how people's perceptions cloud what they believe.
