First Day ~ May

By

I usually link up this post with Nicole at Journey to Josie. But Nicole's little boy is in the ICU following a minor setback from open heart surgery he had about a month ago. Please be praying for Gabe and the Popes as they endure another hospital stay and work to heal up their baby.

Here is how our First Day of May was spent.

A verrrryyyy early start to my day with a conference two hours away.

A little help for the drive.


Made a stop at HB while I was in Springfield. First time I have been in one in over two years. I love Hobby Lobby!
Lunch in the car.

Stopped for groceries on my way home.

Brynne's latest obsession.

And Eli's latest one.

Free ice cream cones on Customer Appreciation Day!


Creating artwork for her new room.



Brynne's new room in the basement.

Brynne is the pitcher on her softball team. Way to go!!!

A New Year, the Same Me

By
Happy 2019! It is that day of the year where everybody is up extra early starting their new exercise routine, eating only healthy foods, cracking open the pages of a new planner and Bible study, and debuting their Word for the year. You chuckle or roll your eyes, but you are doing at least three of these things. By the way, so am I. So let's start with the Word of the Year. Mine this year is Lagom. It's the Swedish word for "not too little, not too much, just right". It's a concept of being, doing or having just enough. So let's rewind to last New Year's Day. My Word was Might. And that's how I planned to tackle my year. And, I did. I worked out hard, I mommed hard, I traveled hard, I worked hard. And it was a good season. It prepared the way for this year. I accepted the Challenge I set for myself and succeeded. But, I don't need to keep up that pace. I am at a place in my life where I can kind of sit back and enjoy my life without f...

As part of our discussions about the brain , and the fact that it's the BOSS of the body, we discussed the importance of the spinal cord . We did a hands on spinal cord project by alternating gummy Life Savers and wagon wheel pasta on a pipe cleaner.

We are now done talking about the parts of the body and will conclude our study of the Human Body with a two-day unit ...
