Home Sweet Simple Home

All quiet- not quite

Quiet here online
BUT
quite noisy in reality.
Very full days here.
Continuing with the squeezing, squishing and gathering all that we can of these last days before school begins again.
Tonight, right now, it is quiet in the house.
The children are outside.
Mr. Steady is tinkering.
These are the days- the unhurried days filled with promise and family.
We’ll have a campfire and eat our supper around it on tin plates.
Mr. Steady will throw in some cedar chips to remind us of Up North and we’ll do a bit of star gazing.
We’ll line the tub with a grit-ring before the night is over.
And tuck in cleaned and scrubbed kiddos for one more night of 30 minute reading before lights out.
Tomorrow we start up our homeschool group for the new school year. Just like in other schools it will be a half day- just wading in and getting use to the new schedule.
The evening will be our very special annual Back-to-School night here in our yellow townie farmhouse.
Alphabet Dinner
School Cones
Daddy Blessings.

I don't know about others in Michigan but I am leaning towards liking her. I watched her speech last nite and was quite impressed.
I continue to wait and see how it all plays out.
The VP debate will be interesting.

Amy,
She is a strong speaker. I think you are right about the debates. We have to see how she thinks on her feet without a prepared talk.
