Hearts at Home Daybook

Outside my window: It is almost dawn.  My family is still sleeping.  Trying to get a jump start on my day:) 

I am listening to: the hum of my washing machine.

I am wearing : Pajama pants, the shirt I wore yesterday, and an apron.  Sexy.

I am thankful for: my husband.  He worked through the night last night.  Went to bed at 5am when I woke up.  He works hard so I can stay home.  I love my life.

I am reading:   Hinds Feet in High Places this week.  Finished it in one night.  Chris and Tiana have a tradition started.  He is reading Hannah Hunnard's series to her every night at bedtime.  they are almost finished with Mountains of Spices.  I have been ousted.  The books are having a profound effect on both of them.  My husband doesn't read...I am ecstatic!

From the kitchen: my cabinets are bare.  Not much cooking going on here.  Looking through cookbooks and planning menus. 

I am thinking: about the economy, our country, and my children's future.  I am pretty much trying to get as knowledgeable as I can about conservatism.  What is going on right now in our country is scary.  Government expanse and massive debting.  It is going to negatively impact our children for generations.  It has GOT TO STOP! 

I am creating: an enriching environment for my family.

On my iPod:Allison Krause. 

Towards a real education: trying to keep up with Seton.  Tiana loves teaching textbooks and Math is her favorite subject.  Love it.  I love Homeschooling.  I wish everybody would do this with their kids.

I am hoping and praying: for my family.

In the garden: weeds.  Lots of them...

Around the House: putting out fires.  Still can't get a handle on all of this stuff.

On keeping home: fantasizing about being able to get help in the home someday.  Ahhhh...

One of my favorite things: Landon snuggled next to me in the morning.  He is spoiled rotten and I don't care.

A few plans for the rest of the week: catching up.  With everything.

A picture thought I’m sharing:

She was so little then.  What happened?
