So Much Fun!!

Tonight I had one of the most fun nights that I have had in a long time. It was so refreshing!!

It was already planned for Bonita and Linda to spend the night, and at the last minute I decided to invite Monique and Natasha. They have had a lot going on in their family recently and seem to have been a little lost in the shuffle. So, I thought tonight would be a fun way to show them that they are very loved. Plus, they have been missing a lot of school, and this way I can make sure they go to school.

Another added bonus is that I have been wanting Linda and Monique to spend more time together. They are both such a good influence on one another. Linda has been hanging out with some girls that seem to be pulling her in the wrong direction, and I wanted to subtly steer her away from them. It seems to have worked...

All 4 girls had a BLAST tonight; going to grocery shopping with me, making cookies with Kirsten, eating dinner together, and overall laughing A LOT. In fact, Natasha has been laughing to the point of shrieking with joy pretty much all night. It has been SO MUCH FUN! Monique and Linda seem attached at the hip, which is so good for both girls. Linda needs a good friend, and Monique needs the love, and distraction. Bonita is, as usual, just content with whatever, and Natasha seems to really be enjoying the freedom to be silly. Man is that little girl silly!

I am really hoping to have more opportunities to do things like this, especially over the summer when they don't have to get up early and go to school. There are so many girls that really need to be loved! It makes me even more thankful to have Bonita and Linda...they are so loving and accepting of everyone, they love whoever I bring over! They do the ministry, I just provide the house. :)
