multitude monday

I am grateful for...

the current placement of things

for the time to look at, into, and through things

for a changing evolving family, marriage, extended family, friendships, season, homeschool, me...   

my sweet boy's shaved head, 

and that his hair will grow and he will no longer look like he's 7 and about to rob a bank

two back-to-back nights of gaming with my Husband

my hands down favorite anniversary gift EVER:

the rest of my life with strong, handsome, supportive, funny, sweet, attentive, loving, loyal, beautiful him:

my son nearly living at his Nanna's house with his cousin Michael since Friday

his return, scheduled for Tuesday night

that he and his five year old cousin Michael have become inseparable BFFs. 

that he is very well loved and taken care of, be it here or there. 

LOTS of spare time to myself 

the laying out of our Kindergarten plan (with a first grade curriculum) for the year

the next two days all to myself for preparing a special school space and a new play area in our home 

our coming first day of Kindergarten, August 26th 

my new budget becoming hardly noticeable in week five

still having everything we need and more

and lastly, our two new outdoor pets:

our marbled orb weaver "Shar" (Charlotte from Charlotte's Web is an orb weaver) living right on my bedroom window OUTSIDE, of course

  



western painted turtle "Harry" (the second) crashing in the wheelbarrow, for now
