This girl. She has been drawing a lot lately. She found a sketch book and started sketching whatever she sees around her....first were some apples, then toy cars, and then my handbag.....like she knows what a "still life" is.
Sarah is our youngest home schooler, and Luke is the oldest (at sixteen).
Here he is working on Math. He enjoys it, thankfully :)
My days seem to be just as busy as when all of our children were young, but in a different way.
And I'm constantly working on having our days run smoother.....
There was not a "highlight" to my day....no extra special outing or moment. My day was filled with the ordinary, the average, the mundane.......helping children, listening to children, flashcards, reading, laundry, dishes, etc...etc...etc....and it was the very best of days because of these very things. I was productive. Don't you always feel good when you are productive?
I made Chicken Pot Pie for dinner.
I've tried many pot pie recipes, but my favorite is the one from Joy of Cooking.
Classic, made from scratch yumminess.
After dinner, Sarah, Matt, and I enjoyed watching a few minutes of Planet Earth. Sarah's pick.
