Simple Things in March

I can not believe that I'm flipping the calendar to April!  This weekend I plan on rearranging my spring decorations, putting some 'just Easter' ones away and making my house a bit more light.  There might even be a trip to a favorite country store for some new spring inspirations.  We'll see...

Since I stopped Instagram for Lent I don't have as many 'through the month' pictures as I usually have.  But there are always some.  It was a good good month. Filled with everyday little things. Like these...

She was so excited to go the the fancy theater for a field trip.

Ohhhh! I had forgotten all about this! I got to read to Abigail's class for Read Across America Day! I read Bread and Jam for Frances. Because the kids never know it. I can't stand, "oh I read that book already" and because it's memorized and because I love it.

To remember how much I change. Jammies to workout clothes to showered and comfy clothes to teaching clothes to home to mommy at 'their things' clothes (like jeans and a sweater) to comfy clothes then finally back to jammies

When the orchestra teacher is out they were asked to work in parts (violas together, cellos together, violins together) on their music. Anna hates changes and ugh! This loosy goosy hour was so uncomfortable for her. I stood and watched her watch the clock.
