Peace and Quiet vs Busy Days

Yesterday, Tuesday, was a quiet kind of day. We slept a little later, went to Ladies' Prayer at church, and spent the afternoon at a friend's house. This friend lives in Webster, not far from Irondequoit Bay. I took a little ride past her house to where they have built some bigger, fancier homes and couldn't resist taking a picture of the bay and Lake Ontario from the top of the bluff. Back at Barb's house Ben and Hannah went swimming with their friends while the rest of us sat and talked. It really was a relaxing kind of day. It's nice to have those once in a while.

Today was a busy kind of day. I babysat, cleaned, did laundry, and somehow even caught a very short nap while the little ones took their rest. My refrigerator has been cleaned, the dog had a bath, and my family ate a hot supper. Not too bad.
