These are the things that you’d see:

Chaos and noise from three little boys,

And one little lady-to-be.

8am: breakfast and Bible reading.

(that toast isn’t burnt – it’s cinnamon toast)

8:30am: heading to the bus stop at the end of our street.

9am: homeschool time with Esther.

…and Enoch.

Noon:  watching a Science video while eating lunch.

(In case you were wondering why Luke is always missing pants….we are kinda’ potty training.  :) )

1:30pm: naptime

Yes, you too, Laila.

4pm:  David home from school, doing his 20 minutes of reading…this time a library book from school called “Captain Underpants”  (Ahem)

Esther helping take care of Enoch…she does this A LOT.  What a sweetie!

Fooling around on the piano. (and having Wheat Thins for snack)

7pm:  Family “Tea-meeting”, and fresh bread of course.  :)

7:30pm: playing with Daddy’s stuff.

8pm:  Goodnight Nuggets.

Today’s flavor was “Lemon Ginger” which they surprisingly liked…it tasted kinda’ like Chai tea once cream and sugar were added.

Every one of David’s creations had red on them very prominently with splashes of other colors.

Finishing the teapot, which actually turned out kinda’  neat, I thought.
