In my life and our homeschool this week…I find that I can’t separate the two. Life is school. I see all of us pursuing our interests and passions, learning new things, reading, discussing, experimenting, listening, encouraging each other, and supporting one other. We are joyful learners:)
I am inspired by…my dad. He’s battling many complications after having lung surgery. He’s tough though, and his strength and attitude through this long, exhausting process have been very inspiring.
People we’re seeing…family and friends. Who knew chicks were so popular?! We’ve had a lot of company this week, and many of them were friends that came by to see our new chicks. They really are quite cute! With the beautiful weather this week, there were kids all over the place…inside, around the table, outside, on the porch, in the treehouse, swinging in the tire swing, playing basketball, or running around the yard. The girls loved every minute of it!

My favorite thing this week was…the girls made a fruit tart, but they insisted on calling it a fruit pizza. It really did look like a pizza…and it was delicious too! The crust is a giant sugar cookie. The "sauce" is 4 ounces cream cheese mixed with 1/4 c. sour cream and 2 tsp. sugar. The fruit? Rainbow colors, of course:)
What’s working for us…a little “front porch therapy.” Earlier this week, I told my husband that I felt overwhelmed and stressed. His response, “We just need to sit on the front porch more…with iced tea.”
You know what?! He was right! After taking his advice, I have to agree that it’s almost impossible to be stressed while enjoying the beautiful weather and watching the kids play in the yard from your perch on the porch swing where you can sip sweet tea:)
Things I’m working on…yard and garden planning.
I’m reading…The Backyard Homestead, by Carlene Madigan. Yeah, I really want a mini farm.
I’m grateful for…family and friends, encouragement and prayers, other mom bloggers who inspire me
I’m praying for…my dad, others who are hurting or sick, and the many who are traveling this time of year.
That's about it for this March week. After a rough start, it was a good one after all!
