To bed without dinner...

Last night we had a fun night at church singing Christmas carols and had another beautiful candle lighting as we sang more songs on the steps of our church. I've always wondered what it sounded like from the highway as people drive by... It really is lovely to see a thousand or so candle lit at once.

Anyway, when we got home, Graisi was going to fix herself a PB&J sandwich before taking a shower. I quicky ix-nayed that request and asked her to shower first hoping this would be a speedy process since she was hungry. For any of you who may not know, my eldest daughter is as slow as molasses dripping off of a tree in zero degree weather. You get the picture.... she's extremely, painfully slow! Anyway, after waiting for the water to finally turn off after 30 minutes, another 15 minutes went by with no activity. Martin walked upstairs to discover her sitting butt-naked in the middle of the bathroom floor doing NOTHING except sitting there. Finally, after another 20 minutes of drying her hair/wall/rug/towel we finally told her to turn the hair dryer off and get into the bed without supper. Hey y'all... her hair wasn't even dry! 20 MINUTES of drying and it still wasn't dry!
