June 26 - Day Six: The Last Leg"

Peace and quiet final day
The alarm washed that away
All our kids were on the floor
Ready to head out the door
I'm a nut.  I'm a nut.
I'm a nut, I'm a nut, I'm a nut.

Loaded van before we ate
Celebration made us wait
Out again by Pond Scum-top
Lucas fell in, missed his hop
I'm a nut.  I'm a nut.
I'm a nut, I'm a nut, I'm a nut.

Seaside's Secret Good Acts Time
All five got rewards so fine
Celebration, the last one
We found out that Red Team won
I'm a nut.  I'm a nut.
I'm a nut, I'm a nut, I'm a nut.

Back to Waco, then, so fah
Lexie to Oklahoma
Whataburger with the Vaughan's
For some time we shut them down
I'm a nut.  I'm a nut.
I'm a nut, I'm a nut, I'm a nut.

Josiah found his brothers sick
Caught the Covid, that's not slick
Might be staying with DadDad
Don't know if he's sad or glad
I'm a nut.  I'm a nut.
I'm a nut, I'm a nut, I'm a nut.

Stopped at Buc-ees once again
Thought the singing wouldn't end
Then PK took up his time
Sang his song with awesome rhyme
I'm a nut.  I'm a nut.
I'm a nut, I'm a nut, I'm a nut.

What's the use of a trash bag?
Should it never, ever lag?
Josiah's old icee cup
Leaked right through, so clean it up
I'm a nut.  I'm a nut.
I'm a nut, I'm a nut, I'm a nut.

Sugar rush has struck once more
Since we left ol' Buc-ee's door
Cailyn's singing louder, Hup!
Josiah's giggle cracked us up
I'm a nut.  I'm a nut.
I'm a nut, I'm a nut, I'm a nut.

Marlena a poet is
Brennan's quite the nut now, 'tis
Once the Nut Song they all heard
New verses rang like a bird
I'm a nut.  I'm a nut.
I'm a nut, I'm a nut, I'm a nut.

(The next two were written by the kids!)
Driving into Houston town
We are acting like some clowns
We are driving in downtown
Means we really are homebound
We're a nut.  We're a nut.
We're a nut, we're a nut, we're a nut.

Fifteen u-hauls in a row
Making traffic go real slow
Traffic slow here in downtown
We'll put OUR frown upside down!
We're a nut.  We're a nut.
We're a nut, we're a nut, we're a nut.

So our saga sadly ends
With some memories to lend
Moms and Dads all want to hear
Of our great kids Camp this year!
We're a nut.  We're a nut.
We're a nut, we're a nut, we're a nut.

Hebrews 12:11 says, "No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful.  Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peach for those who have been trained by it.

Father, thank you for a full, exciting, exhausting week.  Help our kiddos draw close to you as a result of it.  Amen.
