The Simple Woman's Daybook 5/25

FOR TODAY May 25th

Outside My Window...It's a beautiful, sunny day. The kids just came in from playing hide-and-seek tag. I have clothes hanging on the line.

I am thinking...about doing mostly unit studies next year with the younger kids. They always remember more of what they've learned using this method. We'll see :)

I am thankful that....I can be home with my kids.

From the kitchen...I made homemade rolls to go along with dinner and chocolate chip cookies for desert.

I am wearing...an orange and green patterned skirt with a black cotton short sleeved shirt with sandals.

I am creating...a clean, orderly, cozy, loving home for my family.
I am going... to seek the Lord early in the mornings.

I am reading...The Island of the Blue Dolphins by Scott O'Dell aloud to Isaiah. it was one of my husband's favorites when he was a kid. It's my first time reading it.

I am hoping...to have a small garden this summer. I want to at least have tomato and hot pepper plants so I can make homemade salsa. yum yum!

I am hearing...the Indy 500 on TV

Around the house... the boys are watching the race, Sophie it sitting next to me drawing and gluing paper.

One of my favorite things...is reading good books aloud to my kids.

A Few Plans For The Rest Of The Week: I'm helping Andrew do spring cleaning for my parents. He is raising money to go to the national speech & debate tournament in Alabama. I also need catch up on correcting the kids schoolwork.

Here is picture thought I am sharing...
