I did not get much accomplished last week with Ashton being sick so my week is going to look much like last week with the exception of our Menu.

(When I say I did not get much accomplished , please know that I only refer to my "Weekly meanderings To do list" I would never look at tending to a sick child as a "loss" tending to my children is the first priority next to tending to my Troy! I wanted to add that just in case it sounds as though I looked at the week as a loss due to lots of sitting around cuddling. )

1. Bible Study/ Devotions ~ This week I will be rereading reading Chapter 6 of Nancy Campbell's Bible Study  "The Power of Motherhood .

I have also been reading and studying in Proverbs, I will study Proverbs 21-25

2. "Must Do"~ This week I “Must”

• Home Blessing (You can view my HB on the left sidebar)
• Ship out Packages that are ready
• Make and send Orderly Mom Notebooks that have been ordered
• (Still haven’t done this) Planning for the Holidays (just jot basic plans on paper and get pages organized into my Orderly Mom Notebook) Yep, I know it sounds soon but I have to plan early with 4 little ones under foot. Lots to plan this year… Christmas Homeschool Open House on my blog, Homeschool group Christmas party at our home, make plan for gifts we will be making, food to be made and this years Family Gatherings at our home for Thanksgiving and Christmas!
• Make more food for the Hummers

3. Zone~ I will get to that second closet I could not do last week.

4. Train Them Up~ We will continue with our daily Bible lesson, character training and daily chores along with 1^st time obedience training.  This week I want to us focus on “serving” others. We will do a few exercises where a brother will serve the other or let the others go “first”, maybe even give another a favorite treat or the bigger half or a treat. J 

Mark 10:43-45 says "but whoever wishes to become great among you must be your servant and whoever wishes to be first among you must be slave of all. For the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many".

We will do the following activity:

 “Serve God Every Day”

5. Menu Planning~ Once again both new recipes from last week were a success and added to my meal roster!

My Glazed Meatloaf was super moist and delicious, I used less sugar then it called for and added a few spices and veggies to the mix. Next days sandwiches were the best!

The Layered Pumpkin Loaf was a hit too! The perfect treat to welcome in the Autumn season with a nice hot cup of Tea. J
