happy happy tuesday

welcome, tuesday.
i am so thankful for you.
monday was not so nice.
but we made it.
by the grace of God.
alone.



we are hitting the books hard today over here.
we started our new science cirriculum yesterday, so we have to spend a little more time than usual learning and working out our schedule.
we are diving into botany and it is going to be fun.
most days.
except when we have melt downs{see yesterday's post}.
the girls are headed outside to gather some specimens of flowers and leaves.
i happen to love my lavender that has decided to give me a few final blooms.
maybe they will pick some.  :)














how exciting is getting a new pair of shoes?
about as exciting as getting them in the mail!
oh, how i do love getting packages delivered to my door!
teachers need new shoes, too, right?
i love them.













"It is of the LORD's mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not.
They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.
The LORD is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him."
Lamentations 3:22-24



hope your day is amazingly lovely!

lazy, crazy hot days

it's hot.  
super hot.
so i'm being REALLY lazy.

just wanted to share some of the random fun we had today. it wasn't exciting, but that's what made it so great.


      the beautiful countryside that we live in.


                                                                  my sweet elly belle


                      homemade strawberry freezer jam.





my {sometimes} cooperative baby
yes, baby.


                                                  an all day pj day
                                                   yay!


                         love from my sweet boy.  priceless.


yes, i am thankful for lazy summer days.  the kind where it gets to hot to even think about moving.
that's what we've done today, so far.
next up, ice cream cones!
best part?  daddy came home.
yay!


Much love,
xoxo


note:  i absolutely love this verse.  our preacher pointed out this past week that if someone is going to 'guide you with their eye', you have to be looking at them.   so simple. so true. 
guilty. as. charged.
Lord, help me to keep my eyes on You.

Thou art my hiding place; thou shalt preserve me from trouble; thou shalt compass me about with songs of deliverance. Selah.

 I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I will guide thee with mine eye.

Psalm 32:7-8
