Just a Daisy in the Meadow

Now that I’m not pregnant and have adjusted to a new baby, we are on a schedule.  For the most part I like it.  It helps me keep focused.  This is good!!!  So many sidetractions can get me off track of what really needs to be done.  But till lunch time I am a bit frizzy brained and frazzled having to go between a third grade, a second grader, (kinda) first grader and three other preschoolers and the newborn.

And today we just had to have lunch earlier cause Mom couldn’t handle any more and needed a break.  She sent them all outside expect the baby of course and just crashed on the couch, having her own “quiet blanket time”.

And for an update after my last post,  I’m able to function better now . . . And so life goes on!

It felt good to start school today . . . It’s nice having a school room though it felt a bit full with five children and a teacher in there . . . Lynne napped quite a bit of the time . . .

Japheth is in second. Jeremiah – first, Loraine is learning how to read and starting math, Wayne is coloring and matching things and Jaden plays legos and wanders about and is in the long process of being potty trained.

Lynne’s school consists of learning to sit still during devotions, and story time, not bat at the book I’m reading, and having “blanket time” (Where she has to stay on the blanket and play with the one toy I give her, the goal being that she will stay put, whenever I put her on it)

And my job is to stay cool, calm and collected in the midst of a whirlwind of activities . . .

I’d appreciate your prayers . . . if you can take the time to remember me in that way . . .
