If we had no WINTER, the spring would not be so pleasant: if we did not sometimes taste of adversity, prosperity would not be so welcome. - Anne Bradstreet

Red Letter Day
Posted in Homeschooling

Today was one of those days you wish would never end.  It started off in a bit of a tizzy but ended up so lovely.  When I woke up this morning I had not remembered that it was the first day of the local co-op that we were hoping to attend.  We went late, but all three children were ready to go and went along happily.  I did not anticipate this - as none of them seemed to particularly enjoy themselves the last time.   The co-op itself was enjoyable, however since we have been out of the loop for a while, we did not know that there was a field trip to a state part for a nature walk at the end.  What a joy it was.  The sun was shining, and the temperatures were mild.  None of us were even wearing a coat on this mid-January afternoon.  The lady that guided our walk was energetic and enthusiastic, and you could tell she really loved what she was doing.  Although I was taken aback by the sign as we entered the park that read "ALLIGATORS PRESENT: Do not approach or touch!" (like I would!) - we did learn about many native plants and animals.   Maybe just for a moment I started to feel what it would be like to fall in love with Texas.  I felt God here - and wherever He is can't be all that bad.

Im glad you had a good. It is always a blessing to end up enjoying something that you never thought you would. Teaches us a lesson of "always be optomistic" LOL

This is a place where I post what I am learning about home-making and homesteading. I may decide to merge my two blogs. The other one is Jewls2texas on Homeschoolblogger. Let's just see how this goes. Currently this blog mirrors my blog on HSB1 - we'll see how it progresses and develops over time! Welcome! Hope you enjoy our visit!
