    Outside my window……it is sunny and warm.  The leaves are out on the trees and the day is shaping up to be a beautiful one. 

    I am thinking………..how blessed we are to live where we do and when we do.  I wouldn’t trade my life for anyother.

    From the schoolroom………..silence.  Everyone is outdoors doing things in the fresh air and sunshine as all young growing things should.

    I am thankful for…………let’s see…….my husband, my children, my life, the day, everything.

    From the kitchen………leftovers from the party yesterday.

    I am wearing………….green tee shirt, jeans, white ball cap.  My usual working in the yard and garden uniform

    I am reading…………still working on Henry VIII.  Hope to finish him up this week.

    I am hoping………….nothing.  I am so content it is almost a sin.

    I am creating…………a place of contentment and peace for my family and all who come to visit.

    I am praying………..for all who do not have what I have.

    Around the house………….paperwork for school, laundry, cleaning up that has been neglected because I have been outside so much.

    One of my favorite things……………just spending time observing each of my children about their daily tasks.

    A few plans for the rest of the week………….holy hours and teach my last fifth grade class thursday.  Spend as much time as I can with the big guy since he will be leaving on Sunday.  Pizza night on Saturday. 

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

    Miss Grace, Thomas, and MK on the trampoline yesterday at the party.  A moment captured for all time of the togetherness and pure joy that friends can find in each others company.

  • Is mary Kate’s hair getting longer?

    I’m so glad you posted.  I’ve missed your posts so much!

  • @JMHardens060703 - Her hair is indeed getting longer.  She is already talking about cutting it again and donating it.  I would like to see her keep it long for a little longer this time.  But it is her hair and she has to live with it.  Have been working in the garden everyday.  Spending as much time as I can outside.  It is good for the body and the soul.

  • Being content is a sign of being in a right heart — no sin there.
    Just wanted to say thank you to my favorite mother of men who serve our country. Blessings to you friend.
