Looking out my back porch... it’s sunny and the weeds are taller still! I may have to ask Dash to mow them down, for my peace of mind.
I am thinking... Happy First Day of September! Also, watching Dash’s first football game on Monday was much better than watching baseball. With only 12 players, he gets a lot of playing time.
I am thankful for... the ability to stay home and homeschool, our dedicated homeschool room, and the change in seasons.
From the sewing/craft room… not much sewing/crafting this week because of all the food preservation in the kitchen
From the school room... Zeke is in that in-between stage for reading. It’s both fun (when he remembers words from one day to the next) and hair-pulling (when he guesses at sounds and letters)!!
From the kitchen... this week I froze peaches.
I am reading... through all the titles little by little! I read what suits my fancy on that day. The women’s group I’ve been involved with at church is doing ‘Women of Grace’ this year. So, I’ve been itching to read through and look at the book and workbook.
I am hoping... the last two (plus) months of this pregnancy are uneventful and that I feel better than I have thus far.
I am hearing... water running to the outside hose – Angelina is watering my lone flower bed and the potted plants around the house.
State of the house… not too bad, although my kitchen is in various stages of clean because of all the food preservation methods. Making sure the kids help more during ‘each’ day of the week really helps us keep on top of everything.
A successful moment… the bake sale/fundraiser this past weekend was a success! Proceeds will be used to pay childcare providers during ‘Women of Grace’.
A few plans for the rest of the week…

A few plans for the rest of the week…
- We are having friends out for the day on Saturday … we’ve been looking forward to this visit for this last month & a half!
- I plan to can peaches at least one day this week = peach sauce for those cold winter months.
- The corn patch is ready for picking. My MIL and I plan to pick and shuck corn this afternoon. That means I’ll be cutting kernels off and prepping for freezing OR eating fresh corn on the cob later this week!!

Sounds like a good week, Suzie! Fresh peaches and corn?! Yummm!!!
