All is quiet. Night has fallen & the birds that were singing all day have gone quiet. The breeze has turned slightly too cool after a beautiful spring day - a typical September evening for this part of the world.
My wonderful hubby& our 4 blessings!
My ewes that are all currently in lamb (yes, I only just found out on Friday & they're due soon!!!Yay!!)
From the learning rooms...
All is currently quiet, although today both students were working hard. Zai raced through his work today. He is really enjoying his current maths where he's learning to add 10's - he's very proud about that! Ellie had a review day today - every 4th day is a review of the last 3 phonics learnt. She's coming along really well & starting to enjoy her workbooks (which is an answer to prayer let me tell you!). After school Zai & Ellie both sat down & wrote stories!
Farm clothes! - Yep that means old daggies - trakky pants & a soft green t- shirt.
I am creating...
Yesterday I finally finished the curtains for our schoolroom & moved onto making the valances for the kitchen/dining windows (I only want valances as these windows have lovely views and are very private!)! I can't wait to replace the drab valance that's there with the cheery red gingham ones I'm half finished!!
My Bible - I'm currently reading Hebrews & also doing our KYB study in Jeremiah.
"Finding God's Path through your trials" by Elizabeth George ( I highly recommend her books!!)
"The spirit of loveliness" by Emilie Barnes (another of my favourite authors)
"For the children's sake" by Susan Schaeffer Macaulay
"Minnesota Brothers" by Lena Nelson Dooley
(I always have many books on the go as it depends what mood I'm in as to what I read)
I am hearing...
Nothing but the hum of the computer! All is quiet & peaceful!
I'm hoping to get some more spring cleaning done in the next few days!!
"The spirit of loveliness" by Emilie Barnes would have to be one of my favourite books ever! My parents gave this to me as a graduation present when I graduated from university! I didn't read it for a good 6 months, but once I started I couldn't put it down. I read it at least once a year!
I've been offered as many plants from the garden of a house that's going to be demolished as I want, so I have to get my gardens prepared & read up on transplanting roses, lavender & daisies. Otherwise we continue on with school & watch the ewes closely for any lambing difficulties.
Oops - I'm experimenting with quantity - guess this was too much!!!LOL
For other daybooks go to The Simple Woman's Daybook.

Enjoyed!!!
This is a nice way to record your thoughts and activities.
Hope you can get your garden beds ready. It feels good to be planting this time of year.
Possum was doing "The Young Maiden's Daybook" for quite a while but has stopped recently.
So nice to read Renata, wish we lived closer together as we have so much in common. :)
This is the first time I've seen an example of a day book. It looks like a good way to help remember the day. Very interesting.
Rose is doing a great job in John's position. Ross was asking after you and your dad the other day. How is your dad?
Take care.
Oh, thats so lovely. I see what you meant about the bread, just slightly overfilled, but I'm sure the kiddies loved it!!!
Have fun,
luv

Sounds like a relaxing time in the still of the night - and a good day, too, except for the bread thing! That's cute!

Hi Narn,
