Sigh!

That is a contented-I-got-through-another-full-day sigh!

 

Let's see... 

 

I got the normal stuff done in our schedule, PLUS baked and decorated Kaitlyn's cake, mopped and vaccummed almost of the upstairs, made the final cushion for the bench, hosted a birthday party which started late b/c of construction traffic in Belfair and ended late due to accident-related traffic in Bremerton! 

 

Somehow, I managed to get a heatlhy meal (chicken, couscous and salad) on the table only a little bit later than usual and found time time to read to the children before bed. 

 

Oh yeah, and I cleaned up the container of red glitter that Hannah poured out when she was working on a little craft project today!  That was fun!  (Especially, since I discovered earlier this year that I am allergic to craft glitter...  so I had to be really careful not to get it on my arms!)

 

Kaitlyn had four friends over.  I gave them an All-About Kaitlyn Quiz.  They decorated denim lunch sacks, made beaded bracelets, ate cake and ice cream, painted their nails (my dear friend, Diana, even did nail art for them!) and then let Kait open presents. 

 

She got money (she is saving up for a camera), a handmade soft blue scarf, a pretty wispy blue and silver scarf, hair barrettes (also blue and silver..  two of her three favorite colors), a silver bookmark, and a silver and clear box for her trinkets. 

 

Tomorrow I will give her the canvases we bought for her.  I am sure she will want to get her easel out right away when she sees them! 

 

I really will have to find time to post pictures soon...  I have so many new ones to add!

My word! You are busy! I wonder if I listed all that I got done today if it would look as impressive as your entry. I should try it sometime. But yours sounds so...cheerful. I love working, but tend to be intense as opposed to cheerful. Maybe I should try that too. LOL

My name is Christina. I am 38 years old and have been happily married to my best friend, Russ for over 18 years! My username is quietcajun, but I am neither quiet, nor cajun! The nickname is based on my children's initials! The first four children are: Kaitlyn (16), Jordan (14 next month), Ian (12.5), and Noah (10 next month)... put their first intials together and you get KJIN (cajun). Sarah Hope is one of our babies in Heaven and Hannah (8 in September) is my youngest (so far). Put S and H together and you get SH as in SHHHH... QUIET. Get it? Thus, quietcajun! We are in our 12th year of homeschooling. We have tried public school, but we soon realized how important it is that they be HOME at all costs. Now we are back to having them all home again! It's not always easy, but it is for the BEST! Two of our children have Asperger's Syndrome. That is an adventure in itself. We are still learning! This blog is a place for me to sort out the daily joys and challenges of life as a mother and wife as I strive to love and know God more and bring GLORY to HIM in EVERY part of my LIFE!!!!
