The Week's Half Over!

As much as I hate that time flies by so quickly, I have to say that I am not sad that the week is half over. I definitely enjoy having a couple hours to get things done in the mornings while the girls are at school, but I truly enjoy spending the afternoons with them. We usually have a little school work to do, but it's fun to be able to watch them learn. They made books yesterday (totally their own idea), and they wrote - hold on to your hats - "I like school." in them. I just about fell over. I think maybe we're making progress...maybe.

We spent yesterday afternoon outside again. We made more chalk and worked together to draw a map from here to Melvern Lake. Meme & Papa are camping there this week with some of Papa's family, so the girls are really looking forward to visiting them soon. They plan to go down Friday and spend the night, but we'll see. We have no plans for the weekend, but this is probably the last weekend in several that we aren't busy. I have to go dress shopping very soon, so maybe I can work that in this weekend. The time is slipping away and the calendar is filling up. It's nice to have things to do, but I'm such a home-body that I sort of enjoy having the weekend to spend with Gary & the girls. They're my favorite people in the world, after all! :)
