I'm So Proud

...of my children and all that they are learning.

Abigail is really taking initiative in cleaning. She has to be reminded to do a good job, and I tell her that we do all things for the glory of God, meaning we must always give our best effort. She is eager to please. Last night, we attended a Bible study, and Verne and I were so pleased that Abigail paid close attention and answered many questions.

Autumn sewed by herself several times this week. She made a wrap skirt and an apron for the American Girl sized dolls. She also sewed an historical outfit for a doll all on her own! She worked hard at making it come out just right, and I couldn't have done a better job myself.
Today she made another wrap skirt for herself, and she can't wait to wear it tomorrow. Autumn is also working really hard on her school work.

Collin is learning how to figure the materials needed for a chain link fence. He's talked to several adults in the community, and learned to ask for better prices. He has been diligent, and has already finished his school for the year.

Mac is making wise decisions on his own regarding school, and managing his time. He's a busy guy with a full honors load, a job, Boy Scouts, and his band.

Sure, I trained them. But you know what? They have minds of their own, and they're using them wisely!


Proverbs 6:6-8

Go to the ant, you sluggard; consider its ways and be wise! It has no commander, no overseer or ruler, yet it stores its provisions in summer and gathers its food at harvest.
