FOR TODAY as part of The Simple Woman's Daybook
Outside my window... is a gray sky and birds doing their nervous pre-rain flittering from quiet tree to quiet tree. It reminds me of junior high girls getting into position before an event begins.
I am thinking... that my husband works hard.
I am thankful for... coffee.
From the learning rooms... comes the sound of frantic catalog searching for ideas for next year's course of study. Surely I can find some curriculum that is absolutely free, amazingly fun, and completely self-teaching. In addition I'd like a curriculum to be able to simultaneously clean my bathrooms whilst turning my children into overachieving geniuses. Know of anything?
From the kitchen... comes the sound and smell of nothing. With 4 less children to cook for this week I've been barely cooking. So far no one's complained, especially since I bought hummus dip.
I am creating... I'm not, instead I'm day dreaming and starting too many projects.
I am going... to get my van registered before our rabid codes inspector comes back. 7 days out of registration and I get a letter! This is the second time our registration has expired while our son was in the hospital. Last time I had to pay $150. Trying not to be bitter.... not very successfully.
I am reading... curriculum.
I am hoping... that my children are having fun and being helpful/delightful to their grandparents.
I am hearing... the morning commute begin.
Around the house... is a lot less paper. I stayed up until 1:00 a.m. filing and tossing.
One of my favorite things... chocolate.
A few plans for the rest of the week: I plan to continue enjoying being with just my littlest two children.
Here is my "picture for thought" ...
He never did figure out how I knew he had been playing in my purse.

Please if you find schoolwork that does all that you mentioned, pass it on to me. I want that too. (You cracked me up) I am also thankful for coffee too!

Please!! Let me know if you find that curriculum! I could SO use it as well. I love the picture! My daughter use to do that so often. Many Blessings to you!
It's a lot of fun to be with just the two littlest isn't it? I hope you have some fun together. Enjoy looking for a curriculum - I would LOVE to be able to go to the USA to look for some homeschool materials - we have such a limited choice here in SA.
Love your header and your photo in your daybook. Precious! I'd like to know if you find that curriculum, too :) Enjoying my coffee as I read these daybooks.

I absolutely adore boys. I love this post so much that I can hardly stand it.
What curriculum are you reading?
that purse picture? fabulous. my husband pales when he sees our strapping young boy in pink lipstick, but what's a mama to do?
