I find myself this evening really hoping we get some rain tomorrow.  For the last week or so it seems I have been working hard outside, trying to get our garden planted, trying to revive flower beds after the spring frost, still planting grass seed in bare spots, picking up lots of rocks, weed-eating, etc.  The children have been helping outside as well, and always someone has to be inside watching the baby, or listening out for him.  I love to be outside, especially in the springtime.  But the more I am outside, the more the work piles up inside the house.

So, the laundry is getting backed up, there are bills that need to be paid, there is school planning that needs to be done, and some writing and correspondence that waits.  I am thinking that if it would just rain all day long, I would have to stay inside and get this other work done.  And, I wouldn't then have to worry about watering all those newly planted beds that seem to dry out way too quickly!

For anyone who might read this blog, let me leave you with this verse, which I love, from 3John 1:2: "Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth."
