The Simple Woman's Daybook

The Simple Woman's Daybook is something fun and encouraging that my friend, Peggy, has been doing for awhile. I've decided to take part each Monday as I so enjoy reading other's Daybook entries of the things they're doing, reading, making and cooking. The idea is to post the Daybook entry each Monday - I know this is Thursday, but I'm going to try it out and see if I can get everything in place!

FOR TODAY - April 30, 2009

I am thinking . . . I hope I can get this to work!

I am thankful for . . . friends who encourage my heart.

From the learning rooms . . . all is quiet as we finished up last week. The boys are still reading their chapter books, and I'll be doing some "summer school" work with Eli.

From the kitchen . . . Chicken spaghetti, fresh asparagus, and peanut butter cookies

I am wearing . . . a black turtleneck and jeans (a huge change from shorts a few days ago!)

I am creating . . . several new additions to my blog.

I am going . . . nowhere today.

I am reading . . . "A Gown of Glory" by Agnes Sligh Turnbull which I started this morning.

I am hearing . . . Caleb mowing the lawn and the dehumidifier running.

Around the house . . . I am going to write up Ben's transcript and course outlines in a bit, bake some cookies and finish up the laundry.

One of my favorite things . . . watching my children's creativity emerge in a dozen ways throughout the day.

A few plans for the rest of the week . . . early morning Bible study with a friend, a book sale and library trip tomorrow, our church retreat on Saturday, to finish up homeschool paperwork, pick asparagus every day.

Here is a picture thought I'm sharing of Pennsylvania's Little Grand Canyon that we visit occasionally when we're at the cabin:
