The Week Ahead

By



Our summer break free-for-all is now over. No, we're not doing anything hard core. But, lazing around in our pjs doing absolutely nothing just doesn't work for me for long. Sure, we needed some of that these past couple of weeks because of all of the personal turmoil going on. But, it's time to at least have a goal for the days ahead.

I am going to incorporate the kids' Bible verse from Sunday School, Acts of Kindness challenges from church, Brynne's Keeper's Club activities, and TOS Crew reviews into our daily plans.

Here's a preview as to what we will be doing this week ...

Monday ~ Memorize 1 John 2:15. Make cards to send to grandma in the nursing home. Go to the library to sign up for the Summer Reading Program. Drop off recycling. Go to Hobby Lobby for some supplies needed for projects. Make Brynne's apron for Girls Club. Eli play IXL.

Tuesday ~ Memorize 1 John 2:15. Brynne write letters of appreciation to three adults. Practice memorizing our address. Go to a local park/splash pad with Co-op. Go to Girls and Boys Club. Eli play IXL.

Wednesday ~ Memorize 1 John 2:15. Brynne write a personal letter to a friend. Practice memorizing our address. Go to the water park. Eli play IXL.

Thursday ~ Memorize 1 John 2:15. Brynne write a personal letter to a friend. Practice memorizing our address. Read a book. Play Rainbow Sentences.

Friday ~ Memorize 1 John 2:15. Brynne write a personal letter to a friend. Practice memorizing our address. Read a book. Play Rainbow Sentences.

    I have missed reading your blog! Now that I am starting to recover from illness after returning home from vacation, I can finally catch up on blog reading. I am starting with yours and I can see there are a lot of posts in the past four weeks! :)

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...

Science Sunday ~ Hmmm ... Let Me Think About It!

By
This week in our study of the Human Body , Brynne moved on to the Nervous System . Our first stop was a Pamela Hill Nettleton book called, Think, Think, Think: Learning About Your Brain . 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 talked about why there was the "squishy" stuff in between the vertebra and how the back can bend and sway because of it. We completed "The Brynne" by adding the stomach, small intestine and large intestine, from our study last week of the Digestive System (although I just realized I have the large intestine coming out of the stomach, when the small intestine should be) and the brain and spinal cord. 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 ...
