No Photos...

...just words.

Sermon on the mount - surprised at how much I'm learning - thought I KNEW this one. ::snort::

School - lots of it.

Laundry hung - forgot to bring in tonight. Oops.

Found discussion questions for "Grace Based Parenting". Downloaded, thought some more about our upcoming Sunday School class.

House cleaning - a fair bit.

Recharge, reflect, restructure...the process has moved to family life.  We're contemplating some changes.....chore time AFTER school before the mad dash to roam the hood with the pack.  I will say, "NO," to guilt at needing help. They do  NOT have to help me because I'm too busy with "ministry". Learning life skills is MINISTRY...to me and to them in the future as they learn work ethics and livings skills to be productive adults. Somehow I've lost sight of this in the last two years. I so badly wanted to "prove" the kids would not suffer by "my schedule," that I took over all their chores and left them with much more free time than our kids usually have. LOL

Started reading a family read aloud tonight - Cat of Bubastes by GA Henty.

Spent two hours on women's ministry projects. Today was regional - focused on the upcoming conference.

Cooked dinner - such as it was.

Akiko san is sick and cancelled.....but that is o.k.

Spent the "saved" hour and a half surfing for fun lapbook resources for Zander and Stacia.

Several dear friends from the past have been on my mind and in my prayers a lot today....

Time to rest.....

Choosing Joy!
