The Simple Woman's Daybook

For Today Monday July 27, 2009

Outside my Window...the sun is coming up I hope we have showers again today. It brought a nice breeze and some wonderful cooler weather yesterday.

I am Thinking....what am I not thinking about. I wish my thoughts in my head could learn Simplicity and order.

From the learning rooms....we are set up to get into the swing of school. I have maps on the table for Geography. We are using Beautiful Feet, kids love the literature way of learning. Then we are going to enjoy some science today. Some plans this year is to do more reading together. Hoping to get into some book clubs with our friends. We are going to do some comprehension guides, together. And of course a daily math lesson.

I am Thankful for...Freedom. Every time this morning I began typing; each thing came back to freedom. Freedom to teach my children, Freedom to choose what store to shop in, Freedom to choose my curriculum to use. Freedom to choose heaven or hell.............

From the kitchen...coffee is brewed. As for today and food preparation not sure were that my lead. Sausage, beans and corn bread? Spaghetti?

I am wearing...my nightie. Not sure what I want to wear yet. Would be easy if I would ever finish the ironing.

I am reading...I have to admit my reading is decreased. Have much I would like to complete.

I am hoping...For a calmer school year.

I am creating...black dress for baby girl, the 2nd sock for #2 son.

I am praying...for my home. I don't have answers, all I can do is pray, I don't want to move I love my home and my piece of country living. But, I do want to follow God's will for me and my family. When God allows us to know if we stay or go. I pray I have the right attitude.

Around the house...all is quite. The children are waking one by one very quietly.

One of my favorite things...my children laying in bed with me as we watch a movie together.

Few plans for this week....getting back into school. Setting up my appointment for the evaluation. Maybe another beach visit.

Here is a picture thought I am sharing with you... Saturday night at the beach. Little pool on shore perfect for the kids.
