I know Saturday isn't the beginning of the week but it's important I start there because I got to spend it all by myself! The boys were up north sucker spearing and so the girls and I stayed at my parent's for the weekend. My mom watched the kids on Saturday so I could have the day. From 9 in the morning to 8 at night I gardened, I wrote, I painted. My cup was so full.
Over the last few weeks I've been trying so hard to do better with homeschooling. Trying to stay present, really make time for what we need to do- work as well as fun- and trying so hard to soak it all in. Grace will be at school next year so this is the last year I'll be homeschooling all four. I just know I'm going to miss having her home and being with all of us. I've been successful here and there.
It was beautiful on Monday so Grace and Jackson biked to the library for books and Grace's tutor session. I love that we live close enough to our little town for those kinds of adventures to be part of our homeschool day.
Nora has been my garden helper and I've enjoyed it so much. So far we've weeded and weeded, planted peas, carrots, lettuce and kale as well as replanted some escaping strawberries.
We are also in the middle of a big bedroom rearrange. Not sure how long it will take given that these days tasks like this move in super slow motion. s
Iyla has decided that it is best to be outside. Clothes or not she is usually ready with her boots on to go adventuring.
That's all I can think of for now.
