For Today… Monday, September 21, 2015 Outside my window…. my children and Anna’s children are playing in the yard. It has been fun to have Anna and the children here today. I am thinking… about worldviews and founding documents and revolutions. Oh my. Sunday School is fun this quarter 🙂 I am thankful… for fun with friends and…
This week has been so busy that I am having a hard time remembering Monday. [phew] We did our Couch to 5k on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. It has been perfect weather for it. We did GroveTime every day this week. We read sections from Ps 119 as well as Judges 7 about Gideon. We…
