I'm a homeschool mom of 3 daughters. My aim in life is to glorify God by loving and serving my family, grow personally in my walk with Him, and being a Titus 2 woman to those younger than me. This blog is to share what God is doing in my life and in the life of our homeschool.
Princess is 9 years old . She was born a princess and continues to hold the title. She loves all things girlie and is talented in all things crafty.
Pixie is 7 and a half. She has a passion for truth, loves rocks and shells and has a huge collection of them.
Peanut is 5. She is fun loving, happy all the time and can make anybody laugh.
This afternoon I took Pixie to one of those paint it yourself pottery places. She was in much need of mommy time. She chose a statue of two reindeer. It turned out cute. She does a good job and is very detailed. Goodness we were there for about 4 hours. She worked on it that whole time. I chose a plate shaped like a Christmas tree. I think it turned out fine. Painting is one thing I am not good at. My drawing abilities are lacking and if I don't have a picture in front of me to copy, I am done in. I revert to my childhood type drawings. You know, the five or so things you drew as a child and can still draw today. I put a snowman on the plate and wrote Merry Christmas at the bottom. We get to pick it up on Friday.
I guess I will work my way backwards. Saturday, I went to lunch with some friends, by myself, and then to a Christmas craft sale. I didn't find anything I needed so I came home empty handed. The traffic and rain reminded me to shop online and get my Christmas preparations done early. I really want to enjoy the season without being too stressed. I also hope to focus more on cooking, advent celebrations, and service opportunities.
Friday was crazy. I had my three girls with me at the bead show in town. It comes twice a year and I like to go so I can get a better deal on some of my supplies. The girls were less than pleased and less than cooperative. After that was a much needed trip to Costco. By the time I got home I told them that they were not coming with me the rest of the weekend because they bickered too much and drove me crazy.
It was a busy weekend. Now it's time to start the week. Blessings, Susan
