Warm and Toasty
Yesterday we cranked up the ole woodstove for the first time this season. It was a cool day and the heat kept coming on so we decided it was definitly time. So we all gathered up some sticks to use as kenneling, then we loaded the back of Daddy's truck with some wood and stacked it under the deck so it would be ready to throw into the fire when needed. The whole family pitched in to help, even Shiloh did her part.
We also sowed grass seed on some patches in the front yard that have needed it for four years, (since the remodel) it was so nice to have that done finally. The Lord provided the rain today so hopefully we'll have nice grass come April.
It was a really fun family day and it made me realize my life would be managable again, especailly when we're home. I still dread going anywhere without Mark because it's hard for me to manage all four kids alone. I feel badly for Jordan and Josiah because they miss out on alot of fun homeschool trips and activities, but today made me realize we're crossing some hurdles and it won't be long before I'll be fine on my own and we can join the other homeschoolers on these outings.

It sounds like you had a great day! You have the right perspective too when it comes to outings.
