Peggy at http://thesimplewoman.blogspot.com is doing the Simple Woman's Daybook for Monday's.
I thought I would join in the fun!

FOR TODAY Monday April 29, 2008...

Outside My Window...the trees are swaying in the strong wind, dark clouds and rain...it's very beautiful to these eyes!

I am thinking...of what needs to be done to prepare for the end of our homeschool year with Katie, she's our last graduate!

I am thankful for...all these years I've had with our three while we homeschooled, I wouldn't give up one moment of it!

From the kitchen...homemade pasta and homemade sauce all cooked by 21 year old son Christopher

I am wearing...nighties, it's almost bedtime

I am creating...a fabric square wreath for the front door...lot's of cutting!!

I am going...to bed very soon :O)

I am reading...Passionate Housewives Desperate for God

I am hoping...the wind dies down soon, it's very loud

I am hearing...quiet, except for the wind and my fingers hitting the keys

Around the house...dh is in the living room watching TV, Christopher and Katie are upstairs playing UNO

One of my favorite things...My handmade quilts given to me by friends and family

A Few Plans For The Rest Of The Week: Lots of homeschooling, to town for shopping on Wednesday, visiting with my sweet little parents on Wednesday, staying home the rest of the week.

Here is picture thought I am sharing...
This is true simple living:

Love the old ways!

Pretty Yellow Flowers!

{ 02:20, Friday, April 18, 2008 } { Link }

Oh we have been blessed here with some beautiful yellow flowers dotted all over our yard!! Pretty dandelions everywhere you look! Now I know that dandelions aren't the nicest flower but for these eyes that have so looked forward to spring and the new life that it brings these flowers are more precious than gold! I remember when I was a little girl that I was just amazed at all the pretty yellow flowers we had in our yard come spring, and oh how I loved taking a bouquet of them to my mommy, and she would rush to get a jelly jar with water to put them in! She kept them until they were such pitiful looking little things but that was such a wonderful thing for this little girl that loved nothing better than to please my mommy! Through the years I've been blessed with the same little bouquets from my 'littles' and have given them all an honored spot for the duration of their short lifetime. Yes, others may scoff at dandelions but I think they're just pretty little pops of yellow and they make me very happy! The bees are buzzing out there now having a grand time and I wouldn't take that away from them for anything! Let others have their chemically treated perfect lawns, I like to watch what nature does and allow it to make the choices for me....such beauty!
