Family Day

Today we had family day at the kindergarten, I didn't really know if I was looking forward to it as all the other teachers thought it was to cold and to early in the year for family day. I didn't say much but instead decided to wait and see. I had to stay half an hour longer at work because of family day but I didn't mind as long as I could get my shopping done and be home before 5:30. So around 3:00 the parents started arriving, and the sun came out, it was probably warmer then it was all week this afternoon and the kids who's parents showed up seemed to be having loads of fun and the parents also. It was actually really nice, I had a little boy crying on my lap most of the time so I didn't really participate in anything until he discovered the food and the crying stopped so I went about taking pictures of the games. I ended up having to stay 45 minutes later then I expected and was annoyed that I wouldn't have everything done in time.

Finally everyone left and I started making my way down the road to the shop which is about half an hour walk away, I really didn't feel like walking all that way but since I didn't have much choice I tried not to think about it. Before I even walked 5 minutes one of the kids dad's drove by and offered to drive me to the shop, it was completely out of his way and it made me feel really happy. On the way home even though the walk was up hill I didn't care and just felt really happy, I know it wasn't much for him to drive me, but it got me thinking about how God always knows how to make your day, and how I shouldn't let small things get me down because when I am positive he can do these small favors for me which really make me happy and feel loved by him. I got home half an hour later then I had hoped but since I didn't have anything to this evening I was fine with it. And I guess I learned something good from my shopping trip. It's finally weekend and I'm content.

Well I normally don't make posts about my day like this, but today really stood out to me for some reason so I thought a post would do it justice.
