Week 31 Log

Spring is here.

1. I have been feeling a make-more —friends-hunger. This week I found some people.

2. We read The Year of Miss Agnes. What a fabulous story of a teacher and the joy of learning. I am inspired to create a timeline, make stories for Caroline to read and continue the art, stories, music, nature and poetry.

3. We finished The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind. I felt so inspired to listen for a dream, a cause or a way to help someone.

4. The blue heron, the song of a sand-bill crane, the hooded warbler and the four bald eagles made birding magical.

5. Our friends were in a production of Peter Pan at the local community theater. We laughed in delight, clapped because we believe in fairies and thought things lovely.

6. Half the grapes are pruned. I need to navigate teaching work is good and not drudgery.

7. Della is wanting more independent study. We created a plan and she is working with a better attitude.

8. St. Patrick’s day traditions were good. I want to create sticky memories.

9. Adventuring. I love the connection as a family over the busy extra-curricular activities. We need to find the right balance. Gymnastics, martial arts, ballet, track, swimming, clubs and music lessons feels full. I like slow living.

10. The Aggies made it to the NCCA tournament.
