doesn’t she look calm and relaxed, just sitting there? wishing for more of these moments right now.
we’re busy at my house. as in “no time to check even my most favorite blogs” busy and “no time to turn on my sewing machine” busy.
it’s lots of good stuff but school, mostly. My kids are in the thick of a large amount of memory work (poetry! addition tables! months of the year!) and I am doing my best to stay with the program and be their dutiful instructor. It’s time-consuming, and it’s all we do some days, other than three meals, laundry for 5 people, keeping the germs at bay and fighting the lack of sun problem i deal with - although the homemade light box is helping a lot more than expected.
anyway, must limit my internet time for now (tearfully and with longing looks) and am bidding you farewell for just a few days, my pretties ~ be well and stay warm. I’ll be back on my blogging feet in no time.

Comment by freelisa January 17, 2007 @ 9:00 pmWhat did you make your lightbox out of? I’m thinking we need to go for a walk outside as soon as the weather permits. It’s been so gloomy. Love the painting!

Comment by Angela January 26, 2007 @ 9:39 amI should just copy your text and plop it on my blog. My daughter has been begging me to home school her also, so now things are in flux around here again. I am hoping that once we get into a schedule I can get back into a rhythm of blogging and enjoying what everyone else is doing. I hope you are having a nice break and that the sun is shining for you every once in a while!

I hope you’re well, not frozen, and that small children are reciting poetry for you and feeding you peeled grapes all day long while you try on new shoes and get your fingernails painted. XOXO
