Our Monday......a few snapshots....

Sam continues to do great with his reading.....all 5 of my children have now learned to read using the Ladybird 'Peter and Jane' books.  We have been doing a lot of work on reading, alphabet, spelling and writing since Sams teeth fell out :)  


Sam's book pile from the library this week:


My Daffodils are now flowering beautifully:


Daffodils are so pretty...love how bright and cheery they are after Winter:


Abby tried a new craft - tie-dye using sharpie pens and rubbing alcohol:




I am loving my new tray - little touches of Spring and Summer in the house:


And rediscovering my love of crochet - after a refresher course:


Rosie has been trying to catch the squirrel.  He lives in our bus shelter but is a regular visitor to the bird feeders.  No wonder the bird table is empty so fast these days:



Susannah's friend came to stay.  We had supper together, the girls made their favourite fruity popcorn and then we had fruit and chocolate fondue again and played a game of Clue:  


A close-up of Abigails tie-dye.  A tie-dyed an old handkerchief that Sam uses when he has a cold.  


Rosie fell asleep on my arm:


It was a busy but fun day....everybody had something fun to do and some one on one time with me or a friend - I headed in to town to pick Laurence up from his friends, we grabbed a few groceries, had a coffee together and spent some time chatting, then in the evening worked on his resume etc...

Games, crafts and school work with Abby and Sam, cooking and games with Susannah and her friend....reading, games and playing with Sam....

All in all a good day :)
