1. Happy Friday! Home schooling has made me love Fridays more than ever. It makes my weekdays fuller, and makes the weekends more of a break. It reminds me of how life was when I was in school, except, no homework! Perhaps that is how all working adults feel as well.
2. I am also sooooo ready for summer break, but don't tell that to my daughter; we have at least 6 more weeks of math to do. I am half contemplating hiring a mother's helper to watch the kids for a few mornings a week so that I can do a little bit more writing guilt free. That would be nice. Patio writing with a cold-pressed coffee. That would be the life.
3. Speaking of warmer weather, I planted some seeds last week. Everytime
I plant seeds I think of the Frog and Toad story where frog plants
seeds and then panics that they will not grow. He goes out and reads to
his seeds, sings, brings light at night. Well these seeds got watered by
me twice, and then the Spring began to do the rainy thing, which is so
much better than the snowy thing now that it is almost the end of April.
I planted some carrots, brussel sprouts, broccoli, and broccoli raab,
lettuces, and snow peas. Once it is more consistently warmer I will do
more.
4. Broccoli seedlings. Yay!
5. I love tulips; they are so happy.
6. My daffodils really are having the best year yet! I am glad I gave them another chance. I will have to find a good annual to throw in here once the daffodils are finished.
7. My three year old F informed me this morning that she is "going to cut off all [her] hair, and find some red hair, and sew it to [her] head, and make two braids" and be Anne of Green Gables. And to her sister L she is "going to cut off all her hair and find some black curly hair and sew it on her head and she will be Diana." I think I better hide the scissors.
That's all folks!
