Happy Homemaker Monday...

The weather in my neck of the woods: Still over 100 degrees. It is fall,right??

One of my simple pleasures: An afternoon nap - :)

On my bedside table: I am almost done with 'Twilight'.

On my TV: news

On the menu for tonight: spaghetti, salad

On my to do list: laundry, take snack to church for LM's religion class today, work

New recipe I tried last week: nothing

In the craft basket: nothing

Looking forward to: LM has fall break next week (already)

Homemaking tip of the week: Don't forget to have the kids pitch in. They love to help and it really makes your job a bit smaller.

Favorite Blog post of the week (mine or other): This one by the Entertaining Mom. Just a reminder to us all that if we cannot resist the temptation that we should leave our phones in the car when taking our kids to the playground. :)

Favorite photo of the week:



LM was taking Christmas card photos for her sextuplets. Never too early (wonder where she gets that). "It was crazy getting them to pose for this" she says.

Lesson learned the last few days: Those chores won't do themselves.

On my prayer list: friends and family

Devotional, Scripture reading, Key verse:

The great mind knows the power of gentleness.

~Robert Browning
