ready for the royal ball

Should anyone have to face Princess Aurora and Belle at 630am? Anna Claire and Lizzie were up and ready for the Ball before school on Wednesday. I prefer to wake up in stages. First stage: able to read. Quiet thoughts and silence in the early mornings as I spend time with God. Second stage: shower! Still quiet and by myself. Third stage: make-up and making breakfast. This particular day I was bombarded with a loud "It's wake-up time!!!" Anna Claire and Lizzie came in during the second stage disrupting the quiet. Ready to play! It was time for the royal ball - complete with ball gowns, shoes and jewelry. Nothing like princess shoes on hardwood floors. The girls had a great time at the ball! "Let them praise His name with the dance; let them sing praises to Him..." Psalm 149:3
