Hello there my friends, today was a good day-except for my sore throat,from coughing. We had lots of fun today. My edest went to school, and I'm sure he enjoyed his time there. He loves going to school. My youngest and I enjoyed our time together. I felt blessed to be able to spend time with our children. Being a full-time mum to my children is not easy, but it's worth it. I find this job challenging and fun. Today I recieved my eldest's report card, from his teacher. I'm happy with his results, we're proud of him. I hope we can make few improvements with the things he didn't quite grasp. It's part of learning. We read a few books today.
We went op-shopping today. We bought cheap, (and good), books.
My personal favorites are Much Ado About Nothing, The Tempest and the Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. They cost from $1 to $1.50 each.
On the way to school, my youngest and I heared the birds singing in the treetops. He loved listening to the birds tweet. We took photos of them.
As we watched the beautiful birds and trees, I was reminded of the poem by John Keats
A Thing of Beauty
A thing of beauty is a joy for ever:
It's loveliness increases; it will never
Pass into nothingness; but still will keep
Abower quiet fo ur, and a sleep
Full of dreams, and health, and quiet breathing.
Therefore, on every morrow, we are wreathing
A flowery band to bind ut to the earth,
Spite os despondence, of the inhuman death
Of noble natures, of gloomy days,
Of all the unhealthy and o'er darkened ways
Made for our searching: yeas, in spite of all,
Some shape of beauty moves away the pall
From our darks spirits. Such the sun, the moon
Trees old and young, sprouting shady boon
For simple sheep; and such are daffodils
With the green world they live in; and clear rills
That for themselves a cooling covert make
'Gainst the hot season; the mid forrest brake,
Rich with a sprinkling of fair-musk rose blooms:
And such too is the grandeurs of the doom
We have imagined for the mighty dead;
And endless fountain of immortal drink,
Pouring unto us from the heaven's brink.
We had a little play too.
These were our adventures for today. Happy Friday!
I wish my Friday was as cool as yours! Book shopping is one of my favorite things to do... and I love parks! I wish I could be there to play and listen to the birds with you. Being a mum is hard, but you make it look so natural. Love you heaps!
