For
Today...
April

Outside
my window…
The
sun is setting on a beautiful day!
It
was nice to see the sunshine again.
I
am thinking…
about
the busy few weeks ahead … rehearsals for 2 plays, and then both
performances, final preparations for Lora's dance recital, not to
mention the final weeks of co-op classes! I am looking forward to
our more relaxed summer schedule!
Counting my blessings…
the opportunity to allow my children to be involved in
activities that they love. I've probably said that before … but it
truly is a blessing to me. Especially when I think of the number of hours that adult volunteers put in to make these opportunities possible.
I
am wearing…
gray
shorts and an
Operation Christmas Child t-shirt.
I
am creating…
plans
for items to crochet for my friend's
first grandchild who
will be making her
appearance this fall!
I
am going…
to
be running all day tomorrow … yippee.
I
am wondering…
what I assigned for tomorrow's lit co-op class ... and if I have actually read it yet.
I
am reading…
Aesop's
Fables with Daniel … he is loving it.
I
am hoping…
that
everything goes well with
James' doctor's visit tomorrow.
I
am learning…
that
the older my kids get, the more time I have to spend prepping to
teach …
I know it makes perfect sense,
but I'm not sure I was prepared for
how much high school math I had forgotten.
In
my kitchen…
by
request of my middle child and with my youngest child's help,
homemade pizza. One pepperoni and one hamburger, the first for my boys and the second because it is
their Mama's favorite.
In
the homeschool room…
just
the same-old stuff.
A
favorite quote for today…
The Way of the Cross Leads Home
by: Jessie B. Pounds
I
must needs go home by
the way of the cross,
There's
no other way but this;
I
shall ne'er get sight
of the gates of light,
If
the way of the cross I miss.
I
must needs go on in the
blood-sprinkled way,
The
path that the Savior trod,
If
I ever climb to the heights sublime,
Where
the soul is at home with God.
Then
I bid farewell to
the way of the world,
To
walk in it nevermore;
For
the Lord says “Come,”
and I seek my home
Where
He waits at the open door.
The
way of the cross leads home,
The
way of the cross leads home,
It
is sweet to know, as I onward go,
The
way of the cross leads home.
One
of my favorite things…
hymns!
A
peek into one of my days…
James
and Daniel in our tree.
And yes, James is reading his lit book!
