ATG & Awana Grand Prix

I got one of those ATG adhesive guns and I have to tell you...it is SLICK! I was a little frustrated at first, because they send this half sheet of paper with a diagram on it and I must have done it wrong...I have ZERO spacial judgement...and adhesive was coming out all over the place...then I laid it down and followed the movement of the inner mechanisms and it is working like a charm...It is easy to use, like a glue stick and strong like tacky tape...you can remove aqny you get in the wrong place and I LOVE IT!!! I hear that the adhesive refills are pretty cheap too in comparison with other adhesive....You gotta try it!!!
Our AWANA Grand Prix is tonight...you might all know it better as a Pinewood Derby...and let me tell you....I think building these cars with the children SHOULD BE a father's job....just like giving birth is a MOTHER'S job...my stress levels were going up faster than ANYTHING and I just really DREAD this time of YEAR....We still have to get wieghts on them and I have NO idea when that will happen as I will be gone all day....
Speaking of jobs, I am thankful for many of my jobs as Momma...I am thankful that I get to be the one home with my babies, I am thankful that I get to teach my children what I think they should know, I am thankful that I get to show them by example how they can learn for life and I hope I am pointing them in that direction...I could do without housework and cooking, but even in that, I am thankful for a house to clean and food to eat...I wonder how many little things each and every one of us take for granted...until they are gone.
"In everything give thanks; for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus
1 Thessalonians 5:18

Blessings,
