Yeah, I'm a slacker... I did have a fairly good week though! The weather was quite nice and the kids had more outside play time after school.
-Yummy dessert experiments
-I was able to read 1 and a half books that were not from my children's pile:).
-Goat chops that turned out to be delicious!
-Listening to Sam play "The Animal Guessing Game" with Scott.
-Thoughts of spring...
-A good day at church today!
-A thoughtful husband that has reserved time each Saturday to take the kids one at a time for a "date with Dad". Only 2 more to go...
-Some tulips Scott brought home yesterday. They are pink and very cheerful:).
-Plenty of Hot Water for Evening Baths.
-Finding Winter Gear for next year for an excellent price. It's a huge savings when we're able to get things on sale at the end of each season, rather than waiting until we have to have it and ending up paying full price.
-Finding out one of the keynote speakers at the Homeschool Convention is the author of our History Series. Scott and I are really looking forward to that session!
-My crockpot. I think I've mentioned this friend before:).
-The friend that challenged me to do "Thankfulness Month". We graduated together almost 20 years ago. Gasp!!! Did I just say that? We really should meet at the top of the Empire State Building for our 20th High School Reunion in 2019:))). 3 years should be enough time to save up:). Wonder why they let us graduate when we were 10? Any ideas about that Rachel?
Til my next post-In March...

21,22,23 and 24
Sunny days for the kids to play outside this winter.
Being over half-way done with this school year!
Kids that took care of all the laundry this week!!!
Exciting things to look forward to this year.
My 3 brothers that continue to amaze me by all the Lord has helped them to accomplish in this life so far!
The prospect of spring:).
The creators of LEGO. Although I'm not fond of picking them up, they have provided hours of creativity for our kids.
The anticipation of looking through all the new library books Scott is bringing home tonight!
Those who have taken the time to write the history lessons in such a way that our children look forward to learning about it every day!
Caleb's new glasses not being as expensive as we thought they'd be...
The grocery savings program at our local grocery store. It has saved us thousands of dollars over the past (almost) 13 years!
Our oldest being thoughtful enough to make tea for her younger siblings last night.
One of the mildest winters we've had since we moved to Saskatchewan.

Thankfulness Day 20
Thoughtful spouse and children. A couple times a year Scott starts the 1 on 1 outings with the kids. For 6 weeks he reserves part of his Saturday schedule and takes them out individually. This week it was Caleb's turn. He enjoyed spending time with Daddy, but didn't forget his siblings at home. He came home with a present for each of them:).
The Lord's faithfulness. He's always there for me and His love and care is amazing!
Fresh snow. If it's going to be cold, it might as well snow and cover up the bare trees and muddy ground:).
My mom calling last night.
A family to clean up after. Life would truly be far less enjoyable without each and every one of them.
Samuel's ability to make us all laugh. His latest is walking up to us and saying, "Hi 'nana peel". It makes me chuckle just typing it. He has such a cute little accent when he says it too. Not sure why he started it, but it's not really a derogatory thing when he's talking.
A husband who's not a picky eater.
Getting to go to church, Heritage Manor and Caleb Village tomorrow! It will make for a long day, but we usually come home feeling greatly encouraged after doing services with the elderly in our community.
