7th Grade
By Lynn, on August 25th, 2010
Today was the first day of 7th grade for my girl. We had a very productive first day of school! It was all I had hoped for and more. As a tradition, we take yearly pictures for “school pictures” to go in a large frame. At the end we hope to have pictures for grades K through 12.
We started our day with pictures and then moved on to talk about goals for the year, how lessons would be handed out and turned in, and then we did some work. We spent time on the couch reading together. Most everything today we did together, though it won’t be that way every day. I look forward to sharing our lesson plans soon.

About Lynn 
Approaching-50 mother of four. Thrifter. Content with lots of clothes bought for very little money. Loves retro. (That could be styles from the 40s and 50s. And sometimes stuff even older than that. And sometimes stuff from all time, all mixed up together!) Bluffs about decluttering but secretly loves STUFF. Goes through stages. Has standing and staring spells before rearranging the entire home. Just because. Tune in each day to see what new outfit comes home from G.W. Boutique next. (That's Goodwill, by the way.) Oh, and she owns a spoiled beagle named Annie. And this blog.

My Symphony
To live content with small means; to seek elegance rather than luxury, and refinement rather than fashion; to be worthy, not respectable, and wealthy, not rich; to study hard, think quietly, talk gently, act frankly; to listen to stars and birds, to babes and sages, with open heart; to bear all cheerfully, do all bravely, await occasions, hurry never. In a word, to let the spiritual, unbidden and unconscious, grow up through the common. This is to be my symphony.
William Henry Channing
1810-1884
What You Do Sow a thought, reap an action.
Sow an action, reap a habit.
Sow a habit, reap a character.
Sow a character, reap a destiny.

Dear Lynn,
Michaela looks so sweet in her school picture! Audrey has been dressing everyone up for their School pictures, too (But you probably already guessed that).
May you be blessed to achieve all your goals and more.
Love,
