Wander With Wayne

This has been a very busy week. Because I will be on a business trip for the week, I’ve needed to try to squeeze meetings around the business trip. This is also a great time for stakes to start devotionals and run self-reliance groups. As a result, I’ve had a lot off meetings and many things to do. With Tate and Dawson, I often try to help get them to bed and then visit with Noell before going to bed. The twins go to bed later than I’d like and I haven’t been getting the sleep I need.
