too many pans or burning plates or something like that...






i have way too many pans up in the air.


smirk

what? did i say it wrong?

yes.  

it's not pans is it?

no babe. it's balls.

balls? balls in the air?


yes. you know. like juggling. you have too many balls up in the air.

oh. well what's the saying about too many pans?

there isn't one.

isn't there a too many pans somewhere saying? like too many pans on the oven?


um. no. there's one about too many pots on the fire.

well whatever. burning pots, stacked plates, or juggling balls. i've got too many of them going on.


smirk

i say things wrong a lot don't i?

yeah babe. you do.



insert completely unrelated
albeit priceless image
of my 11 year old evangelizing,
tebow style. of course.

we're flirting with the month of may aren't we?
 she's just around the corner. 
perennially my least favorite busiest month. 
she has way too much going on
& no gathering around a christmas tree
or the promise of a new year as her consolation prize.
i looked at my calender & boldly proclaimed
i'm officially overwhelmed with may
& it's only april.

i spent most of this weekend working on a recent photo session.
i texted the mama & told her
if i'd have known they were going to be as cute as they were...
with one year old twins who rocked the session
for over an hour... they smiled the entire time...
i would've charged them double for the thousand images i took...
{teasin...}

see what i mean?


ok~

i would love to send a copy of the Christy Nockels cd to
amymck
ashlee
& yesenia

if ya'll would please email me your address
(in my profile link just over on the right)
& i'll pop them in the mail.

let the mountains move.
we come with expectation.
waiting here for You"

Too many irons in the fire.. ?? That's the one I've always heard (along with the juggling one, too) Yes, it is crazy and overwhelming, but at least we don't have a graduating senior this year! ;o) Hang it there girlie

LOL I've personally declared May my month of "NO." (I'm saying No to everything this month and taking care of me so I can be prepared for Summer.)

Amanda said...

Oh girl. I am with you on the month of May. Our lives always just explode in May. I want so much not to hate it but it's hard not to! Jesus come!!

Ruth said...

May is a busy month here, too. I always get those sayings wrong. I blame it on being bilingual. Sometimes, I still struggle with the basics.
Hope things go smoothly for you as you enter May. Hopefully you will find some time to enjoy it.

If I were to say, "too many balls in the air", my kids would laugh at me, so I like too pany pans in the air, too many pots on the fire, whatever...I know what you mean.
I LOVE Tebow and I'm very sorry we lost him. I have nothin' against Manning, but Tebow is just such a fine young man and likeable guy.
Those twins are so darn cute.

Sweetness. Those babies are precious. Paige, you crack me up. Remind me to tell you some stories of expressions gone wrong. You'll get a huge kick out of it!
