Outside my window: It's a long way down. Dogs are barking, leaves are rustling, a little girl yells, wind blows branches against my house. My tree is stunning.
I am thinking: I don't know if I'm ready to teach yoga yet. Am I ready to teach yoga yet? Yes, there is an opening. Yes, I have enough hours... but those hours aren't exactly in instructing a class yet. I want to do it. But I want to be good enough that any students I have will want to return. I don't want to be embarrassing.
I am thankful for: So much.... but in this moment, my husband's good job, PCPK and the wonderful wonderful women who work there, children's motrin which is making Holland feel better, the ability to go to a grocery store to buy food and that there is food there on the shelves, a new car, a Savior who loves me when I am unlovable.
From the kitchen: an extra cheesy lasagna, freshly made by muah.
I am wearing: Aero comfys, Aero t, and an Aero hoodie.
I am creating: Memories. I'm beginning to put my efforts into Thanksgiving and Christmas. I love to make the whole month or so special for my three girls and my guy. John paid me the greatest compliment when he told me he always liked Christmas, but now because of all I do, he loves it.
I am dreaming: of the Dominican, where in three months and three days I will be lounging on white sand beaches with around 20 or so of my closest friends; celebrating the wedding of two of them.
I am going: to read aloud at story night tonight for my In-Laws, hubby, and big girls. We are almost finished with our second book Self Raised by EDEN Southworth. Up next will be The Printer of Udell, which President Regan mentioned as being one of the most influential books of his life.
I am reading: I just finished reading The Hunger Games trilogy aloud to John. They were crazy good. And they make most others books seem like a bore after the rate at which the action moved.
I am hoping: The Lord chooses to make me an amazing yoga teacher. For good things for John and our family.
I am hearing: Holland sounding out words next to me. How fun to be a kindergartner learning to read!
Around the house: I got every single window in the entire house washed today, inside and out. The Acadia got a bath as well, and all the laundry is done. Now if I only I had had time for me to get washed up too...
One of my favorite things: a neat and tidy house, candles burning, a bottle of wine breathing, children tucked into bed, and John with me to enjoy the evening. Aaaahhhh.
A few plans for the rest of the week: Story night tonight, followed by yoga. Youth group for Alyssa tomorrow night. Teaching some small group ladies yoga on Thursday night. A cigar event with friends Friday night. Teacher Training all day Saturday, sleepover at night for Holl, and friends over for dinner for us. Sunday will bring church, grocery shopping, hanging with the girlies, and yoga. Awesome.
I wish the picture could do it better justice, but truly, this day it was stunning. |
