The kids and I had a busy day. I wish I would of got up earlier but I stayed up too late. We met my friend Jen and her son at open gym at the Martinsville Gymnastics Academy where my girls take gymnastics on Thursdays.
After the gym we went to the school playground to have lunch. Then we parted ways and I had to go to the library to return and get MJ more books. She loves the library and they have their summer reading program going on. She makes a contract saying how many books she is going to read for the summer and each week she gets a prize when she comes to check out books.
Then we went home and got stuff ready for our 4-H meeting at the community garden. JEM’s group weeded the garden, made pinwheels, and tin pie pan decorations for the garden.
The minis who I’m in charge of made paper plate crafts. I didn’t have as many as I thought I would so it went well and not too messy.
I’m always running out of stuff so we had to go to the store to pick up something easy for dinner. We are on a new healthier diet so going to the store is a challenge because I have to read the labels. We decided on chicken salad and fruit. Very easy and not much cooking just chopping.
Well off to eat dinner.
Sounds like you had a great summer day! My family does gymnastics and frequent trips to the library too. Working on a healthier diet too.
Parents who put in the effort like you don’t get enough people telling them, “Way to go. You’re doing a great job!” I just did. I noticed you are following my Beginning Reading Help blog. I wanted to stop by and say “Hi”.
