This and That

Well, let's see, what's been going on? We started school last week. Since I graduated last year and no longer have to do school I have been helping Mama with teaching the others. I entertain the two little ones while she does phonics and reading with Emma and Mary Laurence then I do math with them. I have also been helping Cole with Algebra. One day last week it wasn't as hot out as usual so we did math out on the patio swing. I am taking a Spanish class this year, we had our first lesson yesterday. I really enjoyed it!

I have started some fall and winter sewing this week. I am currently making a blouse for myself based on one I saw on Anthropologie's website (I really would love to know who actually spends $78 on a shirt?!). I have also been contemplating whose Christmas gift I shall make next. Unfortunately, I don't think I will be able to share any more of those with you until after the holidays. Don't want anyone to find out what they are getting before it's time!
