Today has been lovely. One of those days when things go well. One of those days when I am SO glad to be homeschooling. It is such a blessing to be home with my children.
I actually got out of bed this morning when my alarm went off (I only pressed snooze a few times!) Then I was able to have some quiet time and read Philippians. No one was awake yet, so I was then able to really pray. Not a rushed a prayer - but some real praying. Hooray! After that...they were still snoozing so I got in the shower!! What a way to start the day.
I want to include exercise in my morning routine and I have done so in the past. But I always feel myself rushing through my reading and praying when I have exercise on the list of things to do. So...I am trying to find a better time to do that. We ran around the backyard a bit this morning - does that count!?
The kids played nicely together (except for Little Mister trying to bite his sister - though I'm pretty sure she told him to do it!). After reading and math we decided to enjoy the sunshine and go outside. SugarBean layed out a blanket for us and we settled oursleves on it. The two kids ate a brownie while I read the last few pages of If You Sailed on the Mayflower . It was just a jolly old time!!
This is a truly precious season in my life. One day they will be grown. I'm so glad to have this time to enjoy my children. If I were sending them to public school I would be getting the leftovers of their day. How blessed we are to enjoy a brownie in the sunshine with a good book!
Yay for homeschooling!!! There is nothing like it.
Hope you have a great day too.
