Pathway to Heaven
May. 4, 2009
Mom's List

Here are some things going on in my life this week:

Spiritual: I am saying yes to God when He shows me His will for me and am working hard to no argue with Him.  I'm reading about a different saint everyday and hoping to bring the virtues they exhibited into my own life.

Reading: I am finishing up the book "Finding Sanctuary".  I hope to pass this book on to one of my sisters as a belated birthday present-it is truly a little gem!  I am also finishing up "A Haystack full of Needles" by Alice Gunther.

Mealtime: Tonight we are hoping to take the kids to a pizza parlor for dinner.  Tomorrow we will be taking dinner to a friends house.  Wednesday, I will be creative with chicken.  Thursday will probably be a sandwich night.  Friday will be centered on some type of delicious seafood.  Saturday will be WingStop with our Kyra! Sunday will involve some type of beef.

Homeschool: This week, Cameron will focus on completing all science schoolwork.  Isaac will work on fine motor skills.  I will work on organizing homeschool supplies.

Home Management: This week, I will work on getting the house presentable and continue purging bedrooms.  So far, I have 4 bags of things to donate to people in need.  We'll also be dropping off recyclables and do a little gardening in the front yard. 

Prayer: Keep working on the Angelus with the children.

Personal: Substitute one cup of tea for one cup of coffee each day and work harder on my 8 glasses of water.  Get out of the house at least 30 minutes each day and try to get the dogs out more on their leashes.

Partner: One evening this week, try to go out with my husband, either to a movie or just to a local shop for a treat and some couple time.

Parent: Be more supportive of each of the children in one area of their lives each day.  Look into swim team for Cameron. Work on the discipline strategy we are incorporating into our family life.  Read a minimum of 30 minutes each day to the children.

Provider: Work on menu's and make a re-stocking list for pantry and freezers.  Continue the laundry battle.  Make my bed EACH day.  Make time for my needlework.

My journey along the Pathway to Heaven via the roads of marriage, motherhood, homeschooling and mentoring~the people I journey with, those I meet along the way, what I carry with me, what I leave behind. My journey is full of trials and obstacles, joys and surprises. Everyday is an adventure.....won't you come along?
