Outside my window... ~sunshine! 

I am thinking... ~i have been away from this space for far too long. i needed to be silent for a while. to just be with my peeps. to just be with myself and my thoughts. it feels so good to be back.

I am thankful for... ~a sweet email from a blogger friend. it meant so very much. thanks Claudine!

I am wearing... ~jeans, green vintagish Schwinn tee, and keens.

I am remembering... ~to judge not.

I am going... ~on a hike with my mister in the morning. 

I am currently reading... ~ ugh! there has been no time to read. it is killing me!
i am diving in The Hiding Place ASAP. and i have been looking at a lot of homeschooling literature...Charlotte Mason is looking like a fit for us. decisions, decisions!

I am hoping... ~to get back into a rhythm in my home. Spring Break threw us off...but it was oh so fun. (spring break post coming soon)

On my mind... ~my sweet friend Marlo. she lost her father only hours ago. i know her pain and sadness and wish i could take it away for her.

Noticing that... ~things always turn out as they are supposed to be.

Pondering these words...~"Let children alone... the education of habit is successful in so far as it enables the mother to let her children alone, not teasing them with perpetual commands and directions - a running fire of Do and Don’t ; but letting them go their own way and grow, having first secured that they will go the right way and grow to fruitful purpose." 

In the kitchen... ~lots of grilling. so glad that Spring has sprung and we can enjoy the out of doors!

Creating...~pillows on the sewing machine. balance and purpose on the brain and soul. even deeper love for my mister in my heart and soul.

Around the house... ~SPRING CLEANING! washing, organizing, mending, planting...i love it all. 

One of my favorite things ~my Spring garden. we have started planting! only 5 types of tomatoes...is there a 12 step program for tomato addiction?!
