The Simple Woman's Daybook

Having a blonde moment, I accidentally posted this to my other blog! Here it is again :)
FOR TODAY April 13, 2009...
Outside my window...the snow is finally starting to melt. Each day, as it warms up outside, I can hear the drip, drip, dripping of snow melting off of my roof. It is music to my ears!
I am thinking...that I can't wait to see my green grassy yard again!!
I am thankful for...a wonderful Easter weekend.
From the learning rooms...the Celts in history and weather/natural disasters in science. We should be done with school in the next few weeks.
From the kitchen...Cereal for breakfast this morning. I cooked breakfast yesterday :)
I am wearing...PJs
I am creating...an online family tree to share with family and other researchers
I am going...to our regular set of classes this week - dance, gymnastics, art, Girl Scouts, AWANA
I am reading...family history documents : wills, probate records, Civil War pensions
I am hoping...that we can get a bunch of schoolwork done today. The sooner we get through it, the sooner summer break will be here!
I am hearing...my little ones eating their breakfast
Around the house...cleaning the bathrooms (not my favorite thing to do) and taking boxes of stuff to Goodwill
One of my favorite things...a good night's rest - and I got one! The kids came down off of their sugar highs and crashed last night. Tori usually wakes up once at 1 a.m., but she didn't last night. She slept from 8-8 and it was a beautiful thing :)
A few plans for the rest of the week:Girl Scout derby car races
Here is picture thought I am sharing...

This is what happens when it's almost 50 degrees out in Alaska. My darling daughter decides that it's swimsuit weather!!

Hi Jennifer,
I so enjoyed looking around your blog.
I am very thankful to a family that makes the huge sacrafice you are making for our freedom, and happy you are morally supported by the leadership in the state of Alaska.
I laughed at your Daybook and all the spring weather talk.
When the temperature dips to a chilly 50 degrees my children layer sweatshirts, gloves and hats to go out and play.
Keep on keeping on and blessings to you!
