Egg Salad Anyone?

I love the week after Easter. It seems to start the season of egg salad. LOL! Enjoyed a yummy egg salad sandwich. I'm really loving the new sandwich thins they are selling in place of buns in the stores. So light and yummy :)

Just another regular day around here. Kids finished their schoolwork before lunch. This is getting easier for them to do, as we are starting to finish up some school subjects. Abby has finished Literature and Bible. Jacob has finished his Vocabulary/Spelling/Grammar. They still have things to do after lunch, review for Bible quiz(we have district and regional competitions just around the corner) and music practice.

Wednesdays are guitar lesson days. Abby's best friend takes lessons from the same teacher as well as her brother and sister. So Abby recently switched her lesson time and goes with. So my friend, Sarah, spends two hours at guitar lessons every wed afternoon. Her idea! But such a blessing to me! It also allows the girls to sometimes join their lesson together(they have been playing at various things together quite often) and spend some time together while waiting on her siblings to get done.

Jacob usually tries to fit in some video game time while she's gone. Though more recently he has forgone video game time for some chat time with a friend(who is a girl!). These kids are growing up too quickly for this mama!

Tonight we have church. Paul goes to Pastor Ed's Bible study. Jacob goes to youth group. Once a month he runs the sound system during youth. Tonight is his night to do so. Abby has her Friend's club meeting(Girl's Ministries, used to be Missionettes). I started the year helping in Friend's Club, but my friend, Debbie, is teaching the kindergarten girls in Daisies and the class grew fairly quickly at the beginning of the year. So I now help/co-teach with her. It is so much fun and such a delight to be with those little girls. But it is VERY tiring as well :)

Tomorrow is our co-op day. We are participating in a homeschool co-op that meets at our church twice a month. This semester I've been teaching a literature class to 4th-6th graders. We are doing a unit study with the Narnia books. So I've spent some time today gathering up my supplies. Jacob is taking a high school astronomy class and and economics class. Abby is taking yearbook and drama. We are going to miss our little co-op!

Well, they've been watching for thunderstorms all day and it sounds like they are here. So I will shut down for now.

Be Blessed!
