Goals for the Week

School Planning at the Lake
Last week was amazingly busy, but this week promises to be even busier! To motivate myself to get going, I decided to share my goals for the coming week.

Marriage:  

  • Date with husband.
Mothering:
  • Do something special with each child individually.
Homemaking:
  • Make some more elderberry syrup.
  • Organize one area of the kitchen.
  • Finish sewing one dress for my daughter.
Homeschool:
  • Have art time Monday morning. This is something new I’ve been doing each week with my three younger children, and they all three LOVE it!
Personal: 
  • Finish reading one book.
  • Exercise 3 days this week.
  • Be in bed by 11:00 every night.

    I love that outfit, would be so cute with a little white cardi. BTW, we make elderberry syrup here all the time. It's a Central European thing.

      I agree about the cardi. 🙂 How neat that you make elderberry syrup, too! We have our own elderberry bushes that I was able to harvest several bags of berries from this summer. It's fun to make your own "medicine"! 🙂
