It’s time to crash. Tomorrow is that long too. Still, and really, I am so thankful. So many good conversations today. So much good direction. I didn’t see my babies enough today though. That’s the only “thing.” However, I’m going in later tomorrow since I’m staying straight through until choir. This is what you do. This is how you make it work. Tomorrow my work day is 11:00 – 7:30 instead of 9:00 – 5:00. This is how I’m rocking the Wednesday version of #pastormom.
Making it work. Wow.
Based on what we know, your church secretary appears to be made of amazing. Good match for an amazing pastor.
