What is on my heart and in my head for this new and blessed day.
From the schoolroom – I want to do lots of school this morning with the girls. I love watching them learn and I love teaching. On days like today I try to take advantage of my desire to teach them. These days end up being filled with laughs and memories even over school work. And that, my dear friends, is why I homeschool.
I am praying – for several friends and family members, for myself and Jeremiah as his birth approaches and for the ability to see people, markedly my children, through the eyes of Christ. I desire to deny myself of all things “good” and seek to focus and put time into the “best” things Christ has for my day. Praying, seeking, striving.
I am hearing – My children talk over breakfast. Katherine singing to herself and the washer spinning. Almost time for a second load!!
I am cooking – Black beans, white chocolate oatmeal cookies, and soup.
I am reading – 1 Corinthians
My current project – I am working on organizing, re writing (for those that need it), and culling out my recipe box. So much in there I don’t use and I can’t find what I need when I need it. So, over the next 5 weeks while I am putting my feet up, I am working on this project to help me feel accomplished.
I am thinking – That I can’t believe that five weeks from today, I will be snuggling little bit in my arms. We will be at the hospital anxious to meet him!
For today – Staying home ALL day long! School, a little laundry, packing Jeremiah’s bag for the hospital, and taking pictures. Plus resting! Last night I had two children that didn’t sleep well, so I am hoping to steal a nap with Baby Kate after lunch.
The rest of the week – Speech tomorrow, Spanish and piano on Thursday, along with visiting an out of state friend that is coming to help me clean, Friday hoping to do something fun if we can get through enough school.
There you have it my friends, a little glimpse into my day and week. So, what does your day/week look like? Any fun plans? What about the weekend?
Oh yeah, the weekend! We are going to a free outdoor expo where all the activities for the kids, the food, the entertainment EVERYTHING is free! What a great family outing. They are going to even have rock climbing vehicles there. Can’t wait to watch that with Josiah!
Where is that expo?
