Thursday Skills

Because there will be a day that Student does NOT live with her parents, she is learning how to clean and rearrange her living quarters. Though she hasn't exhibited any excitement at the thought of leaving campus, she HAS shown genuine impatience to decorate without parental input!

Pacing-off her bed that Principal built, she measures it 10.5 Student feet.



No, that's not the quilt her mothered labored over for her bed...she takes turns with her Auntie Ang comforter from a few Christmases ago...and how delighted she is to swap whenever she feels the mood! What a blessing, Auntie, thank you.



And hoping to switch-a-roo the bed and shelf beloved Principal also made the first summer after she graced God's earth with her girly smiles and laughter, naturally wrapping him around her pinky...it measured 11 Student feet.

Well, onto plan B that will have to wait til tomorrow, as time passes and Student needs complete her Math test and Speed Drills.



Being her first timed-test with an addition chart, she wasn't sure about the step-up. She then recanted and asked that she try it with some extended time, though she finished well under the 120 second limit! Way to go Student!

Heading back downstairs, Student took a break to churn a movie!



Teacher loved that toy as a child, and now the next generation enjoys it as well!

Student read aloud the daily Psalm as Warrior patiently awaited the cross-reference Art assignment that included the Armor of God...and yes, he completed it. Boyish in every way.

Student, on the other hand, made hers into a girl!



Not to leave Warrior out from camera targeting today, guess he just moved too fast!

Quietly awaiting his turn, Mascot sat to read with Teacher before the afternoon sun lost it's warmth through the window.



Because there's no place like home, we thank GOd we have one that protects,
warms, and is placed in a country in which we can educate in this nest.
God is good! All the time He is good! Amen.

What else did Teacher expect!? Her design of clothing is non-stop! Guess we'll have to end with Joan of Arc!
