sundays are usually pretty busy for us mormons.  we get ready for church, go to church, do church callings during and sometimes after church, and we, my husband and i, especially look forward to taking a nap in the afternoon.  waking up and getting dinner done isn’t all that exciting either, because you just woke from a nap.  a couple weeks ago, our little monkeys were ever so sweet.  they have quiet time while we nap, so they can read, write in their journals, or do something quiet.  they came in, and said they had a surprise.  we walked out of our room, and the dining room table was set, and they had apples, bananas, salad, broccoli, celery, carrots, and bell peppers all chopped and ready for dinner.  we had such huge yummy salads and fruit on the side, and they were so happy and felt so great that we were ever so grateful.  one of them had chopped all the food while the other sweet girl vacuumed the floor and set the table.  eating healthy and having the girls in the kitchen chopping and helping out really paid off!
