FOR TODAY... Monday, January 25, 2010
Outside my window... the sun is shining - looks like a pretty day.
I am thinking... I need to go wake up my girls and get started with our day.
I am thankful for... my sweet family; they are such blessings to me.
I am wearing... my p.j.'s (which is about to change right after this post). :)
I am remembering... my little nephew and Ryan's aunt, uncle, and cousin's family in prayer.
I am going... to a speech and debate competition with the girls later this week.
I am currently reading... actually rereading Diana Waring's Beyond Survival: A Guide to Abundant-Life Homeschooling. Even though I've homeschooled since my 15 year old was turning 5 (and truthfully before that, since they're always learning), I still love a dose of extra encouragement every now and then. After all, the kids keep growing and, therefore, each year is always different.
I am hoping... that we have a smooth, fun filled, learning filled day. :)
On my mind... the plans for the day (learning for the girls and deciding for sure about dinner and when I need to do our big bread baking (6 loaves) - today or tomorrow).
Noticing that... the time is getting away from me. :)
Pondering these words...out of the overflow of the heart the mouth speaks.
From the kitchen... planning to have mexican soup one night and, maybe spaghetti another night. Also need to come up with what I'm going to pack into the cooler to allow us to eat a meal out of it once a day for 3 days while at the speech competition (thus baking 6 loaves of bread either today or tomorrow).
Around the house... we need to clean - let's see if we can get it done before the competition.
One of my favorite things~ last week I was reading Raggedy Ann stories to my 7 year old. We read the one where Raggedy Ann had paint poured on her and, when a lady was fixing her up, she put a candy hear that said "I love you" in it. My 7 year old checked her Raggedy Ann doll and the look of amazement when she discovered that her doll also had an "I love you" heart on her chest was precious!
From my picture journal...
Wishing you a week full of fun.

Great socks - we love colourful ones around here. One of the rebellious bits Princess (15) did when starting school in Sept was to wear two pairs - colourful underneath the black uniform ones. :)
Like your picture.
Time gets away from me too. I like to visit all of you so I set a limit to visit before getting up and doing a chore. Then I come back if I can and visit some more.
When we travel, I pack fruit, cheese, crackers and sometimes beef stick for our lunches.
Have a good week.

Love the picture! Wishing you the best on the speech and debate. My middle son did that too, and it was a great experience for him. Thanks for sharing about your day.

The picture brought a smile to my face. Have a blessed week!
Such a fun week ahead of you and so much in the making. I know God will guide your days.
Love the socks. Hallmark stores actually sell them that way!
I was looking for your email and guess it isn't listed. Can I use your sock photo on my blog?
What a great picture. I love the socks. Raggedy Anne was a big part of my girls lives when they were small. Doylene
That is the BEST picture! It just made me smile. One of my daughters loves fun socks!!
I enjoyed your daybook... have a great week!
I bake sour dough bread every week, always looking new recipes.
What kind of bread are you baking this week? If you're ever in my neighborhood, stop and post a comment.
