Tired

All moms are tired. Right? Yes, they are. Nothing new here, so I won't complain. Instead, I'll just embrace the years ahead of being tired.

Today I was motivated to step up my "school" room, which is really just my family/dining room. I needed it to look more school-ish. The problem is, I don't have the space for all my grand ideas, but I'll make due with what I have. For now, this is going to work so we make sure to NOT keep skipping our morning devotionals. I feel those are so important to set the right mood for studying. And for some reason, I keep forgetting to start our day with that most important part. Not. Any. More. This flag is really going to help remind me that we have a little routine to start our day off on the right foot.

The wall time line is our History lessons for the year.  It's actually, "His-Story" that we'll be learning and studying.

Today we went on our nature walk. We looked for rocks. Not hard to find in our part of the world. I thought the kids found some pretty cool ones.  But since we didn't find any blue or orange ones, Nathan colored a couple to make sure we had them. It was fun to discuss the differences and similarities. Why some are soft and smooth, and others are rough. Some have lines and others have spots.

Ever the posers.

 Getting right to work to document what we found. I hope I can keep this up. I've certainly hit the waddling faze of my pregnancy so it's a good thing we can take our time on these walks.



I think next week we will have to do a cloud nature walk. Abigail is so into finding animals in the clouds. It's hilarious to hear what she can "see" in those clouds!
