\"\"<\/a>Rejoice: \u00a0I am really enjoying She Reads Truth’s Bible studies. I did the Isaiah study over Lent, and I think I am hooked.<\/p>\n

Relate: We did a lot this week. The regular stuff feels like a lot right now, and some days I struggled. It also rained a lot this week, and all of the chaos of energetic boys had to be contained inside. Several times, the more sensitive members\u00a0of the house needed headphones so that the noise of the rest wasn’t so overwhelming.<\/p>\n

Remember: \u00a0We read stories and other things, and we did memory work and had morning meetings.<\/p>\n

Reason: \u00a0We did math and grammar, logic and Latin.<\/p>\n

Read: \u00a0I finished a couple of books (Chasing Slow<\/a><\/em> and The Duchess of Bloomsbury Street<\/a><\/em>.) (Disclosure: those are affiliate links, but as I write this, Chasing Slow<\/em> is $1.99 for Kindle. The author has some interesting insights. I recommend the book.)\u00a0I hope to finish Willa Cather’s O Pioneers<\/em> before Book Club.\u00a0Josiah finished up Bomb: The Race to Build and Steal the World’s Most Powerful Weapon.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

Record: \u00a0I did some journalling and a lot of editing of work for Micah. Micah did a lot of writing because he had two projects to finish. I have a project I’d like to start, but I am not sure it is time yet.<\/p>\n

Restore: \u00a0Josiah noticed that we haven’t had a family game night in a very long time. I think that has to be on the plan for next week.<\/p>\n

Margin: \u00a0Here, I am very proud of myself. I did say Yes to one thing this week that I probably should have not agreed to. \u00a0However, I was asked to commit eight hours to something on Saturday, and I said, “No.” I actually would have enjoyed it, but my body was demanding rest instead.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
