After the Rapture

Saturday was suppose to be the end of the world! Well according to some kook in Cali! Of course i was beyond sceptical.....but there is ALWAYS in the back of your mind (or at least my mind) a little tiny thought of what if? What if he's right! I know only God knows the exact time Christ will return....but it still made me think...and maybe try to be a little better person! ya know, talk a little nicer to the kids, spend more time w/ the family, be as perfect as possible....just in case!! So the clock struck 6pm (which was the hour he predicted) I started on all the phone calls to make sure my family hadn't been taken up! I wouldn't have been too surprised if i was left behind...but i have a few family members that would be taken up for sure....so imagine my relief when they answered the phone! I also kept telling myself that of course my perfect babies would be taken and they were still right there in front of me! Yes,  proof this was all crazy and i could go on w/ my day! Starting w/  throwing my 3 little rug rats into the bath tub. My three and four year old were playing loudly in the tub when i pulled my 11 month old out of the tub and took him into the bedroom for a diaper and pj's when all of the sudden i realized the loud splashing around had grown silent!! I gave the baby to my husband and went in to check and the tub was empty!! only water remained! My heart stopped!! Oh my gosh the kook was right!! I stood there frozen for what seemed like forever when the silence was broken by my two wet naked boys laughing in the kitchen! Yes I'm a total dork! I'm here to admit it to the world!! I'm glad it was not the last day of the world and  I hope i get to go with my babies when it is!
