Home From School

Home From School


Popsicle and e-mails are Kaylee's first priority today. Now she's practicing the piano. She's such a good girl!
Kaylee just read this, and said that they are not her top priority. Eating popsicles and free time, no homework, are her top priorities. But she is a good girl - she wants that emphasized. 






All tired out, Emma collapses in the middle of the family room floor and stares off into space for her break. Now she's out rollerblading. It didn't take long for her to reenergize!















Jacob ran back to his room to hide and have a little alone time reading some of his favorite books. It's not only nice that he can read, but that he wants to all on his own!









I love it when the children are home! But that was short lived. Now I get to round them up to go again. We'll pick up Tyler from percussion in a few minutes, and then the older three are off to choir. Tuesdays tend have less home time than the other days of the week. But I'll take what I can get!

It's a Start...

Applesauce and Toast. A great way to start. Especially if the applesauce is home canned with Jonathon apples. Jacob thinks so, too.
My life for less than a month now, until school lets out, consists of days at home or out and about, with my little buddy, Jacob. He's our fourth and final child, during this lifetime, anyway. I have enjoyed every moment watching him grow up, and getting to spend one on one time with him each day for the past four years, since Emma started Kindergarten. Next Fall, Jacob will start Kindergarten as well, and I will enter into a new phase of life. I have no doubt that my days will continue to be full of work and opportunities to take care of my wonderful family.
But why jump ahead?! Right now is great, and getting here has been an awesome journey!
