Homework Time with 2

So a lot was happening today while the boys were in school. I have been in a combat battle with the house. So far it is too close to determine a winner. I am trying to get some extra meals cooked and in the freezer. Things are so busy and in order to stay out of the drive thru lines I am determined to keep things in the freezer that are healthy and easy. Today I cooked 4 meals, 1 for tonight and 3 for the freezer. At least I know that progress is being made. I am also completely overhauling the house. Everything, closets, drawers, cabinets, shelves....if it s in this house it could find itself in need of a new home! I have always been sort of scattered when doing this, and this time I am doing one room at a time. This way I know when I am done I am done!!!

The boys bot had homework tonight. It is so great to see John Michael starting to read. He has always loved to be read to so now I am making a huge deal about him reading to me. This is what I always did with Danny and even now he even loves to read. I hope that this is something that stays with them for their whole lives. I love to read and just for a fun fact...7 minutes of reading releases chemicals in your brain to help you relax. So it is good for you!

Well, It is already past nine, but I am actually not long for bed, so maybe at least before 10. Maybe tomorrow! I will keep trying to it happens! I will as always remember all of my friends and family in my prayers tonight. I love you more than you understand. I am still working on these new photography ideas and so prayers are greatly appreciated. I will be saying a special prayer for my brother in law who is having his wisdom teeth cut out in the morning. I hope that he does well and recovers very quickly!
