Read to Me

Posted in Family, and Homeschooling

Since Christmas, our reading as a family and individual reading time really has dropped. We were having so much fun reading a book together each evening. When I ran across this challenge at Jennifer’s blog Snapshot, I thought it was a perfect motivation tool for myself. If you think that you would like to join in, head on over to here blog to learn more. Our goal is to read together each evening. I want to get back to reading the Narnia series.

Highs and Lows

We had a bit of a roller-coaster day. It was a testing day as a parent, but we know that God has called us to be faithful to Him. We can’t take the easy way out as it will come back to haunt us.

Mommy’s Birthday

Posted in Family, and Holidays

Little Song Bird baked my birthday cake for me. It was her first cake ever, so it was a very special cake. She did a wonderful job with it including the yummy homemade frosting. I helped a little, but for the most part, it was her work. I loved all the gifts and cards that I received. Thanks to all who helped me have a nice birthday!

Just Riding Along

Posted in Family

Today, D had an unexpected day off, so we decided to enjoy our time together. We enjoyed a nice picnic by the water at the park. Then we played some frisbee and rode around on our bikes. D made some adjustments on Munchkin’s bike so she needed to get used to that, so we were all riding around the yard. It was pretty funny. This evening we are relaxing and watching the new Curious George movie. It’s been a nice day together as a family.
