The Green Beans Are Growing and More - The Walnut Acre Daily Thursday July 9, 2015

WORDS TO LIVE BY

 Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go."

Joshua 1:9

TODAY'S QUOTE

Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgment that something else is more important than fear. ~ Ambrose Redmoon

YARD AND GARDEN

The green beans are growing like crazy.  I checked them today and they are about twice the size they were Saturday. So it looks like we are going to be picking and canning green beans very soon. 

WORKING, LEARNING, AND PLAYING TOGETHER

We had a good day today. It was hot outside so we put down a couple blankets in the shade for the kids to have a place to relax and cool down a little. They liked to look up in the sky and see what shapes they could find in the clouds. 

They played band a lot today too. 

Michael's stepsister stopped by today with a big teddy bear that he just loves. He calls it Bailey.

I washed and hung out a lot of laundry today and between Amanda and I we got it all folded and put away this evening. 

After lunch we worked in workbooks, played a game and read some stories.  I also had read aloud time with the older kids this afternoon. 

We also read Ephesians 3. 

OUT AND ABOUT

Amanda and Michael spent the evening at my sister's. Austin decided to stay home this time.
