Monday Musings

It is March, that means the month before April, which is when taxes are do, and who hadn't even started her book keeping (business wise) until today.... ME! So yes I have been at the computer all day working on that, and will probably spend one more day doing that!! 

I really dread this time, we always always owe, once I know the amount though all my stress melts away!

You know those tasks you put off and they keep getting larger and larger, this is one!! When I get this done I will have a monkey off my back... scratch that, KING KONG!

The Lord has really been teaching me a lot lately through the word and other things I have been reading, I am excited to share... just need to find the time! 

Since the move photography has been on the shelf, I think it is about to come off again!

Here is a funny conversation I had lastnight with my toddler in the car on the way home at around 11:00 pm... her = "Momma I want to watch, TV" 

me = "No baby we can't do that, it is too late it will be time to put your pjs on and go night night." 

her(with a pout on her face you could hear) = "momma you make me sad!" 

I finally finished a few books, yahoo! I started Reason for God by Tim Keller and am excited to read it! 

I really LOVE having a bird feeder. I have been amazed at the different types of birds I have seen, this morning I heard a distinct song and had only heard it the day before, I looked and it was a beautiful Meadowlark in the field behind us! So pretty with the bright yellow breast! 

What's fun is even Justin is getting into it!! 

That's all for Monday Musings, and because this post would be better with an image!

Musings Monday

First installment of Musings Monday! (not sure there will be a second but we shall see!)

~ Monday's around here are for slow moving! Mondays we recuperate from Sundays!

~ I like bird watching!! After seeing these beautiful bluebirds last week in our yard I decided we needed a bird feeder in our yard!

~ Apparently Kyla is the Bird Whisperer, because when buying our bird feeder today she informed me that "the birds are so EXCITED!"

~ To be honest, I am not sure who spent more time at the window today staring at the feeder, me or her! 

~ I was thrilled to see these dry erase crayons today for Kyla's white board! 

~ I just cooked dinner and I wish I had skillets with lids, I am pretty sure that will be on my Christmas list for 2010

~ Justin and I have been talking about ways to spend less and give more and I am excited to be more frugal in some areas. For example making things I know I can make, like hand soap, laundry detergent, using less paper goods, and eating at home more!! 

~ I think I enjoy Kyla's new "To Be Like Jesus" CD than she does! (currently $5.00 for the mp3 download!)

~ Has enjoyed thinking on "The Heaven declare the glory of God and the skies proclaim the works of his hands!" Psalm 19:1 (which you can sing to the tune of here we go around the mulberry bush, I learned that lastnight be teaching our preschoolers :) ) and yes, if you are wondering, I have been walking around singing that today :) 

Hope you had a happy Monday!
