My life has been transformed by a new site I found called, Fooducate.
Alethia is actually sounding out, stretching and reading words! I love seeing her light turn on as she sounds out the word and actually gets it. She is doing excellent in school!
Nothing will get you moving on those half-completed home projects like inviting 100 or so people over for a get-together for Journey. I push-mowed our 1 acre lot for the last time this year (thank God!) and raked until my fingertips were numb (I have weird pinched nerves from playing the violin for 30 years) and my hands could hardly grip the rake any longer. We also FINALLY finished our fireplace. I'll post the results next week!
Rainy was accepted into a special art program at school. It meets at 8am on Fridays before school and she is SO pumped to start this morning!
Did you know Christmas is just 47 days away. And here is a great resource (with a giveaway) to help get you and your family in the right frame of mind as you start preparing for this time of year.
Speaking ofEaster Christmas, I know a great resource to give as a Christmas gift! You should go check it out;)
But before we get ahead of ourselves, let's back up to the much sooner holiday that is quickly approaching...Thanksgiving. My friend, Jenn, wrote a fabulous blog about instilling an attitude of gratitude into your children. You should go check it out.
My sister-in-law sent me a link to this post with this photo...and Holy Cow, if that doesn't looks almost identical to my Cai-bo! How CRAZY is that?!
Jude can almost fix his lunch by himself now. I'll ask him what he wants to eat and he will actually give me a legitimate answer as he scours the refrigerator and pantry for what his pallet has a hankering for. It is too cute watching him walk around and think about the perfect meal for his afternoon.
And lastly, but definitely not least(ly), theColonyShop monthly feature is the adoption charm/bracelet/necklace/keychain for Adoption Awareness Month. It is by far my top seller on Etsy, and a great gift for the adoptive/foster mother/guardian as well as anyone playing a part in the restoration of a child.
Well, I've got go complete one more project before the multitudes arrive!
Happy FALL Friday ya'll!
