The first week.
Well, its Thursday of my first week of...whatever this is. School...time...
Its proven to be a very productive week. Khrysten and I have been helping eachother wake up in the morning. So every at 7 am. I either wake up to Khrysten saying "rise and shine" or I call her and do the same. Just depends who gets to their phone first to ensure the other is awake.
Waking up early, is amazing! Its like another world! Monday is sort of a blur. I don't really remember monday for some reason. ok so Tuesday. Tuesday was great! I woke up, did devotions, cleaned the house, made a completely original weeks meal plan (including new family favorites like "BBQ Baskets" and artichoke pasta), went grocery shopping, made dinner, walked the dog and even talked to Allipoodles!!!
Wednesday morning I made dinner early in the morning, all ready in the pan so my mom could throw it in the oven before I got home from work, then I took my brother to bass, and used my mad shopping skills to find two amazing dressed for $6 each, then I went to work. Only thing I failed to do on Wednesday was find Sam a black and white goodwill outfit....
Today I've been babysitting for my neighbor whom I just met. Her little girl is so cute and two years old! She was so fun. And I invited her to church, she seemed really interested!
And this is the first day I've been doing school with Nolan and Hayley while my mom is at work. And Hayley just finished. I had to literally had to sit at the table and tell her to stop moving, stop chewing pencils and borrow the 4!!! My poor mother.
Now Nolan is stuck on Science...I told him to move on to Social Studies...and come back to it.
Tonight I'm making Glazed stuffed chicken with green beans, spinach mashed potatoes and rolls. I've never made it before and it looks so yummy its not even funny! I'm pretty excited to make it.
Well now Nolan is climbing on the counter. And I have to make sure Hayley finished chores.
I'm pretty much loving this. I'm just praying that God give me the grace to continue these things!
And um. I love Elizabeth Elliot.
