Glimpses of an early morning walk...

"Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life? "And why do you worry about clothes? See how the flowers of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you-you of little faith? 

Matthew 6:25-30

The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands. Day after day they pour forth speech; night after night they reveal knowledge.

 Psalm 19:1-2

Another week...

We are making the best of a pretty lousy situation for those that share this globe.  We are healthy, safe and trying to not watch the news too much. 

We have definitely changed school up a little bit, but we usually do that in the springtime anyway.   

Talking to Granny...

Lots of city construction going on...

It was a bit cooler earlier this week, but the glorious sunshine has been making its appearance every day!  So thankful!

We went to get school breakfast/lunches a couple of times this week.  It helps the school keep up their numbers of students served and breaks up the monotony for someone who hasn't really been anywhere for almost 3 weeks!

We are getting outside in the yard a lot!  Metal detecting, fencing pictures, reading, frisbee and mowing.  

Hands-on equations...a cool math program I found when Tera and Daniel were younger that is just as the name suggests--a hands-on introduction to algebra.

Butterfly Bingo with friends...

Just another week...another week in "safer at home" mode.

Spring...

So many beautiful colors on my neighborhood walk....

Great is Thy faithfulness!
Great is Thy faithfulness!
Morning by morning new mercies I see.
All I have needed Thy hand hath provided;
Great is Thy faithfulness, Lord, unto me!

Summer and winter and springtime and harvest,
Sun, moon and stars in their courses above
Join with all nature in manifold witness
To Thy great faithfulness, mercy and love.

Passing the time...

First mowing lesson...

Due to Covid-19, Tera's workplace has been closed--she works for our local hospital's wellness center.  They asked for volunteers to help work as greeters/screeners for the hospital's outpatient entrance.  Tera is a helper!  So, she's been working 10 hour shifts for 3 days this week doing her part helping keep people safe.  So proud of her!  

Yesterday, we celebrated Tera's spiritual birthday.  She accepted Jesus as her Savior 15 years ago.  I made three ingredient peanut butter cookies drizzled with chocolate, because well, we are in the middle of "essential" trips out only.  But Tera loved her treat especially after such a long day at work.  

Our karate dojo is doing Facebook Live classes every day so the kids can still train!  How awesome is that?

Gardening and just playing outside....

 

 Baking--Tera baked these yummy milk rolls.

We did this watercolor art project together last week some time...don't ask me what day, because we are past knowing such things now!

Walks around the neighborhood...

Legos...

Games...

 


and pet snails.

That is how we are passing the time....
