we had pancakes for breakfast with our own maple syrup
listened to Sarah (at the ripe age of almost nine) call me to listen to her read from a book that she picked up beside my bed - How Children Fail by John Holt
"For children, the central business of school is not learning, whatever this vague word means; it is getting these daily tasks done, or at least out of the way, with a minimum of effort and unpleasantness."
I loved this.
I spent some time organizing - this is a constant work in progress
made Sand Cookies from Good to the Grain - a shortbread type cookie with not a lot of sugar that I can share with Emmy without worrying about her having too much sweetness
enjoyed friends that came to visit and made a Citrus Kale salad to share - very yummy!
How was your weekend?
Warm wishes,
Tonya
What a happy weekend you've had! Mine was spent visiting our daughter's family almost 400 miles from our home. I begin the drive home this morning. First I'm washing all the bedding so the house will be in shape when she returns from work tonight. I've been here a week and it's so hard to leave our little granddaughter. But hubby is at home, working, and I SO miss him. Thanks for sharing with us.
