my midweek view

Today has been a pretty quiet. The kids are content to sit in the schoolroom and build Lego creations to use with Littlest Pet Shop animals. They can sit quietly for hours and build with Legos. It really is astonishing.

Of course, they also get out every spare container and book to build houses, or sometimes kingdoms. Oh, the stories I have heard told between the two of them about what they are building! I love when tales from our history lessons make it into their play time!

Today I am enjoying my view from the school table where I sit and try to finish up some school plans. (And blog, obviously.)

I did have to get up and sneak this photo. What is it about little hands holding tiny treasures?

I would love to say that my workspace at the moment looks a little better than the floor, but as you can see, that would not be very truthful.

{Where does all of this stuff come from?}

{What? You don't have a bowl of monsters and lima beans at your house?}

{What? You don't have a jar with a dead cuckoo wasp at your house?}

Although my view may seem chaotic, I am actually finding myself quite peaceful and content. I hope everyone is finding their midweek view to be a pleasing one!
