In the school room....
my youngest daughter has recently received an A on a major Sociology exam and an A in her Russian exam at UNH...she is also thinking about applying to be an RA next year
In my special education preschool class, we are teaching the 3-5 year olds the concepts of In, On, and Under this week, along with following directions for gross motor games and working on their fine motor skills with dot paint markers. Practicing sitting in circle/group time continues to be a challenge for some of the 3 year olds.
Post Script
I'm loving this song right now.......

A moment from my day...
Closing Notes....
I'm learning to take a time each day to "Breathe" based on Priscilla Shirer's Bible study with the same title. As a busy wife, mom, and teacher, as well as a small group Bible study leader, I find I need these quiet moments in the late afternoon to recharge, renew, and refresh before the dinner hour and evening housework, activities. I'm learning to just be still before the Lord. And Breathe.

“A in her Russian exam at UNH”
Is she majoring in Russian? I have wanted to learn it for a long time and have worked on it some. I understand a bit and can count to ten... :)
Congrats on her A!
I enjoyed each of your thoughts and photos. Sounds like you have a busy, interesting life. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for taking time to share your daybook this month! The Orphan's Train is on my list of books to read for 2018. I have had a few friends recommend it to me recently. I am looking forward to it. That gnocchi sounds wonderful... I love a good gnocchi. Such a great comfort food! Blessings to you!
I haven't done this in forever either. Love gnocchi!
I just popped over to the Daybook blog and found you there! That coffee sounds so delicious. The "Breathe" Bible study sounds wonderful, too. I might have to check it out, as I feel I am once again searching for my 'quiet center.'
