Monday, March 12, 2007 - Monday morning
We had a short weekend. My husband was in Nome last week and did not get home until late Friday night. We are used to having him with us on Friday. We got up on Saturday and had a BIG breakfast. Then, blessing #2 and I had Mom/daughter afternoon out, she has finally stopped sucking her thumb, and I had promised her this time out with me as a reward. We ran a couple of errands and went to Barnes & Noble and had a snack and a drink. Nothing outrageous but we had fun being together. Now, if that public library would but in a coffee/ snack area, and that nice round fireplace with comfortable chairs all around they would be as busy as B&N!!!! We still prefer the library, and they can get as many books as they can fit in their bags there!!
Answer to comment on last post, we "Row" books for 4 days as we only school 4 days a week, we do not usually school on Friday as my husband is around. Sometimes I only read the book and we do nothing else with it, some weeks we lapbook if I think there is something worth learning with that book. Time is a huge factor here as our days are filled with other curriculum, so I am looking for a balance with FIAR. We are taking the book from last week and continuing on to finish the lap books this week. Maybe this summer we will finish up Volume 4 some weeks and do nothing but math and FIAR, I will have to work on figuring this out.
Please pray for our Pastor he has been sick for about 4-5 weeks now, he had pneumonia and possibly has/had mono on top of it, he had good results from some blood work and other medical tests he had yesterday. Pray for his health but pray for his mind while he has to continue to rest. He is an on the go guy and does not let any grass grow under his feet and this has been a rough time for him. He called in and gave us an update last night, he sounds better but not like he normally does. But true to his "Pastor" role, he reminded us to pray for those on our prayer list who have terminal illnesses before we pray for him! As you can see, we have a great Pastor. (Right,LAM?)
May the Lord find us faithful.
