This will be brief. Today the devil was busy. When I spoke to Shatema after work she informed me of the bad day she had. I had a bad day as well. So if mommy and daddy both had bad days that means C.J.'s day could not be goo either. I know this month has been bad with me working many nights of the week and it does not stop until the end of the month. The traveling back and forth has been taking a toll on us all. Waking up earlier, the demand of work along with my church responsibilities and my personal business ventures have begun to mount up against me and I am slowly losing control of it all. So now to keep my sanity, which in turn keep my wife and innocent child sane. I am instituting a monthly Family Day. On these days The Johnson's of Old Bridge will be shut off from the regular world. No work, No church business, no personal business, no cell phones, no computer, no nothing. It will be daddy, mommy and baby all together as one.
I will not let myself or my family get consumed in just maintaining our days with them being uniform. So we need a release. I decide this on the long ride home from work today where I touched the New York border. I thought the whole way home about how I would have much rather spent the last three hours with my girls.
So I am planning these days as I type. No you can not know when they will be and you can not join us. We will not write letters or send post cards. On these, Johnson Family Days we will be in a world of our own where no one else exists. I will blog about them once they are over so the next day will consist of two days worth of blogs.
As I sign off tonight, always remember to pray because prayer changes things.
(Forgive all the errors tonight. Mommy usually reads these for me but it is so late and I do not want to bother her, just deal with my mistakes until she can edit them later.)
C.J., I missed you so much today. Daddy loves you and these Family Day's are all about you! Daddy will not let himself be consumed by himself.
