Sep. 1, 2009~ Week of Harvesting ~
This week I was hoping to back to normal blogging but not so. I am in the midst of harvesting spaggitti squash, two apple trees( more to come when they ripen), crab apples (to make jelly),bush beans, and zucchinni. I am still trying to get the house all nice for Philips and Handsome's home coming tomorrow. I hope life will calm down a bit but I know it will be a whirl wind for the month of September. Even though I don't have a tightwad tuesday today, I am living what I share. Next week I hope to be back to my blogging schedule.

"If mothers could learn to do for themselves what they do for their children when these are overdone, we should have happier households. Let the mother go out to play!
If she would have the courage to let everything go when life becomes too tense, and just take a day, or half a day, out in the fields, or with a favourite book, or in
a picture gallery looking long and well at just two or three pictures, or in bed, without the children, life would go on far more happily for both children and parents.
The mother would then be able to hold herself in "wise passiveness’ and would not fret her children by continual interference even of hand or eye - she would let them
be." ...Charlotte Mason
Best TWT is just as you've said...you're living what you usually post! You have a big day tomorrow, with your men-folk coming HOME! Don't wear yourself out too much today, dearest...you've been working so hard the past weeks, you need to be sure you're rested so you don't crash and burn tomorrow! I'll keep all of you in my prayers again!
God Bless,
Lori (aka Plans4You)
PS: I needed the break from blogging this week, outside of my TOS Magazine assignments, anyway! I think, with school starting up, we all did. So I'll take a break along with you!)
What a blessing to have so much to harvest. My husband and I hope to have a small farm.
I love CM's approach to hs. Although I don't follow that method strictly we I try to use many of her ideas.
Blessings,

I have been recording our journey on my blog. Go to my links on The House That God Built and you will find it.
