To keep with our "A" theme, we had waffles with Apricot syrup and Apple juice for breakfast; Apricots, Avocadoes, Applesauce and Animal cookies for lunch and homemade Curry chicken with Apple and a side of Asparagus for dinner! Whew...that was a lot of "A" foods for Day 1!!
Before the girls started their day, I began my day like I need to each day..reading God's Word! I turned to Psalm 17 and verse 8 was "Keep me as the apple of your eye"...what a great reminder of God's care and protection of us and it was neat to stumble (no coincidences with God!) onto this on the "A" week! I love how God does things like that!!!
We read a book starting with "A", did a few "A" worksheets, had circle time where we prayed, read our "A" story from our new Big Thoughts for Little People book, read and starting memorizing our "A" memory verse (A soft answer turns away wrath...Prov 15:1) from our new ABC memory verse book, colored our memory verse coloring sheet, made an "Apple of your eye" simple craft and made Apple butter...all before lunch time!! After lunch we hung up our new jungle trees and then Tinkerbell4 put up the "A" on the tree (we are going to put up a new letter on the tree each week). Princess2 went down for her nap and Tinkerbell4 played quietely in her homeschool room while I worked for a few hours..
All in all, it was a great start to homeschooling!!!
