Simple Woman's Daybook

Outside my window... a nighttime sky. Oh, and silly moths that are insistent on flying into the window, over and over again. Why do they not realize after the 46th time that doing so will not get them into the light? Then again, perhaps there is a deeper question there. Why do we all insist on doing the same silly things over and over again, only to be frustrated with getting the same result?

I am thinking...  Wouldn't you like to know? ;)

From the learning rooms... Oh, oh, oh! We have a new school room and the boys are ever so excited! This week Jacob has been practicing counting to 100, and Jamie is totally enthralled by listening. Joe has mastered (ok, perhaps not mastered, but is working diligently) colors. Joshua is learning patience. Ok, well, he is supposed to be learning patience. He's really rather cute...

I am thankful for...  I have been tremendously blessed by the outpouring of love from my friends. They have been helping with meals while I am recovering from my back troubles, and I am just beyond blessed and thankful to have these ladies as friends. Thankful isn't nearly big enough of a word. I am humbled, I feel loved, and I am so, so blessed.

From the kitchen... the love of my wonderful friends.

I am wearing... denim skirt, lime green geometric print top, white cami, black cardigan.

I am reading... "Created to be His Help Meet" by Debi Pearl. (yes, AGAIN)

I am hoping... "May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope." Romans 15:13

I am creating... yesterday Jacob and I made Alphabet posters.

I am praying... "Pray without ceasing." 1 Thessalonians 5:17

Around the house... the quietness of bedtime.

One of my favorite things... "Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God." Colossians 3:16

A few plans for the rest of the week... mostly resting and school.

Here is a picture thought I am sharing with you..

With Love,
