~For today, Monday, May 24, 2010~

Outside my window~

cloudy skies, chance of rain, 66 degrees

I am hearing~

the washing machine is working hard :),

the box fan is running

I am thinking~

that I have a wonderful family :)

I am thankful~

for God's beautiful creation all around me

I am remembering~

the family reunions we went to as kids

I am reading~

just starting Do You Mind if Your Kids Don't by Dr. Bill Rice, III

I am hoping~

that Oldest Daughter finishes the school year strong!

On my mind~

is a friend who has a new job...so amazed at how God is working out all the details!

From the learning rooms~

tomorrow is the last day of school! YIPPEE!

Noticing that~

I sure do feel better when I eat good food (not refined foods, loaded with carbs!)  :)

I am creating~

some graduation cards to send to some seniors who will be graduating in the next two weeks

From the kitchen~

Monday~pizza noodle casserole, salad

Tuesday~out to eat (to celebrate the end of school)

Wednesday~BBQ chicken, mac and cheese, vegetable

Thursday~meatloaf, noodles (cooked in beef broth)

Friday~hot dogs on the grill

Saturday~?

Around the house~

I'm doing some heavy cleaning and some laundry today

One of my favorite things~

is watching kids grow up.

One of the graduates on Friday night gave a great speech.

I was amazed by her poise and dignity,

and how much she had changed since I taught her in second grade!

I am encouraged~

by the strong character of the teens in our church and school

A few plans for the rest of the week~

include swim lessons, church, summer planning, a library visit, and cleaning my house

From my picture journal~

Can you guess where this is?

We were driving through this state one summer, and the name of this little town just made us giggle...and ever since that time, if my dad is driving through on the big rig, he'll call and say, "Hey, Donna, guess where I am?" or "Just letting you know that I'm passing through Bucksnort."
