The Simple Woman’s Daybook

 

FOR TODAY~ August 4th   

Outside my Window... the sky is rapidly darkening, the air is thick. I hear thunder rumbling. A storm is coming. The rain is needed.

I am thinking... Thank you Lord for the rain. I love rainy stay-at-home days.

I am thankful for... the rain, the shelter of our home, the cool gusts of air the storm brings. And for the new-to-me keyboard from a friend to replace the toasted one.

From the kitchen... Leftover blueberry cheesecake muffins from the weekend and bananas for breakfast. Leftover chicken-n-noodles & sliced h’made bread for lunch followed by BBQ chicken, baked potatoes & corn on the cob for dinner.

I am creating... VBS picnic hand-outs for Vacation Bible School, plus lesson plans for school. And some fun picture thank you postcards.

I am going... to stay at home for the day and enjoy the storm then this evening I’ll be taking the children to Bible School.

I am wearing... olive capri pants & pink shirt- my hair is down as I have a bad patch of sunburn on my neck and up into my hair line from where we missed putting sunscreen on Saturday.

I am reading... rereading Pocketful of Pinecones by Karen Andreola.

I am hoping... for a good soaking rain, a productive day and week, well behaved children, cooler weather to follow this rain and God’s guidance in all things.

I am hearing... rumbling and grumbling thunder, the snapping crack of lightening and the children talking on the porch as they watch the storm.


Around the house... a bit of laundry to do and some picking up and putting away from our adventures last week.


One of my favorite things... thunder storms.

A Few Plans For The Rest Of The Week... VBS all week, school scheduling, ladies bible study, visiting the Air Zoo with the family, celebrating my nephew’s 4th birthday.


Here is a picture thought I am sharing with you.... My nephew and Mr. Conductor tubing- by themselves, for the very first time.

The Wagner Clan

My Husband (DH)-
Mr. Steady

My rock and biggest supporter. The glue that keeps the family sane. He is like deep, deep water- it takes a lot to see a ripple.

DD11- Our Maiden in Waiting- By the world's standard she's a 'tween'. By ours and the Lord's- this is the time of her years of preparation. She is eagerly learning what it means to keep a home and daily becomes more and more of a helper to her Mama.

DD8- Sassafras My Sassy middle child. She holds her own so sweetly and has such an empathetic heart. While real Sassafras is used for flavoring- She is that added spice of flavor to our family.

DS4- Mr. Conductor- The train aficionado in the family. He likes to think he's in charge and often is! He's also the biggest Oreo fiend in the family.
