Summer Blessing

Day 31.

Summer blessing.  

This man.

I am so blessed to know and love and share my life with this man.

This summer, he has blessed me with time. Quiet time to myself. Time for things I enjoy. Time together. Time with friends. Time to be.

He is currently at the pool with the kiddos, letting me spend some hours alone at home (such a rare thing) to think and write and read or clean and plan and prepare.  They've been doing this several afternoons a week, and it has been a blessing.

We are tweaking some homeschool stuff...as you see above, he's working with Hadleigh on math. His schedule this year should be a bit more predictable, as he will be a student again, beginning tomorrow, in a year-long military course. And so, he's going to take over the reins in Hadleigh's math course...and maybe Nathanael too. He is excited and so willing to participate more directly in the schooling process which is such a blessing to me.

His creativity and enthusiasm and discipline and tenderness and study inspire me.

Tremendous blessing.
Thankful heart.
