the day the daycare flooded

Did that get your attention?

So here is my day in a wrapped up in a bow.

I got up this morning to go to church, we all go there and Todd and I were busy checking in pre-schoolers when Joseph's (my boss) phone rang. The next thing we know, he is getting ready to leave to go buy rubber boots....the person on the other end of the phone said, they daycare (that our church runs) is flooded. Well, he heads out the door....we go about our Sunday School business. When church was over I came home changed, grabbed my rubber boots and headed up to the daycare.

*SIDE NOTE* our daycare is at our old campus. We recently built a new church. Our old campus is used for ministry needs, daycare, food pantry, etc.

Well, when I arrived they were ripping out carpet, and wading through the muck of a broken pipe. We spent the next 4 hours cleaning out the daycare (removing furniture, carpet, trash, water) the cleaning crew came in to dry out the place and the staff called the parents to let them know to make other plans for a few days.

Please say a prayer for all of us at the church. The next few days are going to be filled with relocating over 100 kids so that way parents aren't put out more than they need to be, and all the other business stuff that comes with a business flooding. Our biggest concern is our families and getting the kids taken care of as soon as we can. So all in all...its been a wet&wild day. I am now relaxing with some sweet tea and chocolate chip cookies! how was your Sunday?? Did you get to rest any?
