The Lord be thanked for giddy love and springtime, for without either, the world would know no poetry.

Mathias didn't want to be left out of the first day of school pics 😍

This might be the only time that no resistance to pictures ever happens 😂

First day of (homeschool) kindergarten, August 2020.

Everything went well. (Of course, the real test will be how it goes after the honeymoon period, but I'll enjoy the first while at any rate!)

Winning activity of the day -- creating letters out of cooked spaghetti noodles, which somehow transitioned into snack time...#shouldhaveseenthatcoming

We're officially starting our homeschool year on W

We're officially starting our homeschool year on Wednesday, and I decided I never should read stuff online because now rather than feeling underprepared and like I need to step it up, I think I might be overthinking it and like I have overprepared, or maybe like I'm just being overly optimistic about how this will actually go down.

So in that way, homeschooling will turn out just like every other part of parenting - I think I'm doing all right until I start researching 😂😂😂

Since I have finally given in to the dark side and gotten a smartphone, maybe I'll actually be better about staying semi current on here 😂. So this is just to say that this little sweetie turned #8monthsold this week and is finally sleeping through the night most of the time (and being adorable all the time).

Also, he figured out how to scoot over to Grandma's plants and start yanking off the leaves and putting them in his mouth, so there's that.

If it weren't for Grandma, our kids' summer would be a lot more boring, mostly because the idea of the post-fun meltdown is enough to make me not want to make the fun happen at all 😂😂😂. The kids are going to flip when we have to move away...

We moved a week ago, and I'm still exhausted. Anyone want to move our stuff for us when we have to do this again in three months?

In other news, our kids are gradually not as afraid of going to bed in the new place as they were before, so...#progress.

At least one of us is keeping his emotional cool over here during #movingweek .

Seriously, if I ever say I want to move again and it isn't 1000% necessary, someone slap me.

The six new chickens we added to our existing flock of four just started laying this last week! Seeing what new shades of eggs we'll get is always my favorite part.

I have to remind myself of what I love about them because today is the day we're moving their voop, and it has by far been more stressful than anything else to do with the move. Hopefully tonight will have me sighing with relief and not frantically trying to sell our chickens before Friday.

Trying to pack up the house and go through the moving checklist with 3 small children is the main reason I'm waiting until next month to follow through on some of my latest health resolutions, like drinking less Diet Dr. Pepper 😂😂

Good thing there's almost no chocolate in the house because it would be gone by noon.

Five days away from moving, and you had better believe that I'm still harvesting like crazy from my cutting garden. Gotta take advantage while I can!
