Outside my window... it is PERFECT! Sunny and only a high in the mid-70's all week. Ahhhhhhh .....
I am thinking... about how I wish I had a walking partner like my mom does. Accountability would be nice!
I am thankful ... for a 6'2" son who gives me multiple hugs and "I love yous" all day long. I do not take that for granted!
I am wearing... boyfriend jeans, a gray cropped baseball shirt with a rose on the front and knockoff gray Tom's.
I am planning... our little girls summer small group "Keeper's Club".
I am creating... filled flower pots this weekend! Yea!!!!!
I am going... to go have coffee with a friend this morning. Much needed!
I am reading... Home Front by Kristin Hannah, The Templar by P.C. Doherty (Dawson's read-a-loud), Charlotte's Web by E.B. White (Brynne's read-a-loud).
I am hoping... that my parents enjoy their once-in-a-lifetime trip to Ireland next week!
From the learning rooms... Good times! Only 11 more days of school! Dawson and I are digging deep into his study of Knights (and having lots of fun). Brynne and I are digging deep into Charlotte's Web. I have been amazed at the growth in her in the area of narration this year. Yesterday I saw just how far we have come!
Noticing that ... the mama bird on our back porch is working furiously to keep those babies fed. It is truly such a joy for me to observe that nest every year. It's such a miracle of life.
From the kitchen... Pork ribs and potatoes in the crock pot, homemade snap green beans.
Around the house... is a planted vegetable garden. Thanks to my awesome hubby for doing the grunt work and cleaning up my beds for me. Come on veggies!
One of my favorite things... my summer guilty pleasure shows: So You Think You Can Dance, Storage Wars, Next Food Network Star and Sister Wives. New seasons are upon us!
A few plans for the rest of the week... This is a pretty quiet and regular week around here. On Saturday, I am going to get all of my flowers planted. On Sunday, we have invited Rick's mom, step-dad, sister, brother-in-law, niece and nephew over for Mother's Day dinner.

From my picture journal.
Lots of women Daybook. See what they have to say at The Simple Woman's Daybook.
Your folks will LOVE Ireland....assuming they enjoy a slower pace. After our fourth trip last year, we decided that would probably be it. Now, we've decided for ONE more. That sorta speaks for itself, huh?
ReplyDeleteSo very glad to see your little one feeling better. That means you're feeling better too.
I would be your walking partner if we lived closer! Nobody around me wants to commit!
