February 9, 2009. I did my school, helped my grandpa start up a blog, did a 3 mile Leslie Sansone work out tape and babysat for a little while.
Outside my window…
I see the city lights against the dark sky.
I am thinking…
that I love my dad's thoughtfulness. When he came home for his lunch break at dinner time, he brought a whole stack of horse magazines for Active Boy from the library. Active Boy is so excited!
I am thankful for…
my mom for teaching me how to easily keep the little ones occupied. This evening I babysat for about an hour before their bed time so she could go to a parents meeting, and everything went smoothly because I knew how to set up centers, keep the children separated as to prevent arguing over toys and put on a fun song/Bible story tape to keep them somewhat quiet and content while they listened.
I am wearing…
a heather grey three quarter-length shirt with a purple skirt.
I am reading…
Numbers, Psalms and Little Women.
I am creating…
a Dick and Jane quilt.
One of my favorite things…
a clean house!
For education this week...
my usual school work.
A keeper at home skill I am using/learning…
child rearing!
A spiritual lesson I’m learning…
trusting in the Lord with everything.
A godly character trait I plan to work on...
a cheerful attitude.
Scripture I am memorizing…
it's funny, but just like Alexandra I'm just reviewing verses this week!
I am praying for…
patience with my siblings...even when they're not behaving.
For the rest of the week…
more quilt work, cream-puff making for the Shabbat dessert and a date with Mother Dear on Sunday.
A picture I’d like to share… well, actually two. My quilt fabric and what I've cut so far.

I love, love, love that last pic. Very good use of a new angle!
Hi Serenity! Whew, watching children can be tough sometimes. It is hard to keep them occupied for a long period of time without fighting. It sounds like you did a great job! I like your mom's idea. I will have to try it sometimes for babysitting. I love your material, I am sure your quilt will be lovely when it is all finished. =:)
Blessings!
