1000 Gifts, Vol. 6, #3

21.  a snow day on Friday (& knowing it before we went to bed)

22.  2 1/2 snow days + a 4 day long weekend = 6 1/2 days to trust God with a disruption to our routine

23.  puzzles, books, and play-doh, oh, my!!

24.  After 3 years, Little Miss has sat quietly for me to read books (and not just books, but long-ish books).  Was she just waiting for long days at home???

25.  a project a day for me (a la "How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time")

26.  a clean half-bath, clean laundry, a pile of children's clothes sorted (either to pass on because they're too small or to store for future sizes), and the toy closet purged and organized after 2-3 years!

27.  obstacle course with tunnel, bathroom stool, yellow caution tape (great gift for a little boy!), hopscotch, bilibo, and sit & spin

28.  long baths (for the children... I remember using this tactic to entertain a certain 3 year old my first year in Japan, when I was home alone with the two older siblings during homeschool time)

29.  wise counsel from a friend

30.  two business phone calls accomplished ... progress
