A week in the life of us

Well I thought it time that I braved the internet and wrote about our general week. We have so much that goes on and I would hate to look back on this time and not remember the fun and hard work that makes up our lives.
Sundays are family days playing together and generally going outside to eat from our wonderful vege bed. Even Zekiah gets in on the action and reaches up to pick silver beet leaves to munch on. Zemiel and Azariah search daily for the new peas and beans and eat them as fast as they find them. They really love the fresh food.
Monday are usually home days. Every day I have a goal of what work Zem needs to do. This week it is  sign language cards based on the book "The hungary caterpillar", speaking practice with words starting with the 'f' sound, listening practice (on what is called minimal pairs), recognition of emotions worksheets, plural practice, barrier games to improve listening, I Spy, and I try to squeeze in some math concept. Usually I tackle four activities a day but more if Zem is having fun with them.
Tuesday is when I pretend to be Daniel's secretary and do some shopping for him. It is also a big house clean day. Even with a small place, it needs constant cleaning. Zem enjoys using the vacuum cleaner and also enjoys putting washing powder in our front loader washing machine. Azariah loves to spot clean with a spray bottle and cloth. He attacks the spots on the floor with great gusto and persistence. Zekiah loves to follow around the vacuum cleaner and climbs to where his hair is blown around by its air vent.
Wednesday is washing day. It is also the day that I try to water the plants. We currently have a nectarine tree, peach tree, pomegranate, miracle fruit, cape gooseberries, blueberry, lemon, lime, numerous baby tomato plants, lemongrass, longan, geranium, aloe vera, raspberry, quondong, sweet potato, potato, basil, oregano, indian almond, malabar spinach and possibly some more that I can't remember the names of. All these plants are in pots and so require attention each week. I made some watering cans from old spaghetti and baked bean tins so that Zem and Riah help.
Thursday is the busy day. Zem has preschool at EDCP (Early Development Childhood Program), I drop of Azariah either to Aunty Ellie's or to Poppy Brian's house and then go to school to teach Home Ec. Once finished I pick up Azariah, then Zemiel and then come home to make dinner.
Fridays consist of going to the speech therapist, then to the EDCP, then home to get ready for sabbath. It is also my phone call day to specialists if necessary. I pick up Zem and come back home to clean up the house and then help the kids remember their memory verse for the week.
Oh - I forgot. I also tutor 2-3 hours per week in the afternoons. Busy, busy.
Praise God for Sabbath!
Anyway - that is a week in the life of us. I hope you had fun reading about it.
