Honiara Woman's Daybook

Just for today...Monday, February 17

 

Outside my window...sunshine, sunshine, sunshine.  Rainy season is definitely over.

 

Creating in the kitchen...lemon cheesecake morning buns this morning from my new favorite baking blog, a keeper recipe for sure.

 

From the learning rooms...immigration and the Statue of Liberty.  Katherine and I are reading "When Jessie Came Across the Sea" by Amy Hest, it's one of the sweetest books ever.  Betsy and Giulio Maestro write great history books for kids (with lots of pictures), and I pulled out "The Story of the Statue of Liberty" for Katherine this week, too. 

 

 

We had fun looking at pictures from last summer when Sarah, Benjamin, Olivia and I toured New York with their children's choir.  Even though the statue was closed, we still got to sail close by.

 

A few plans for the rest of the week...getting Aaron on the Kosco tomorrow night for a quick trip out to Marulaon.  He'll be leading an orthography workshop in three different areas of the Russells while he's out.  We'll also be enjoying hosting some people who have just arrived at SITAG this week, but mostly we'll just be doing normal things like school and holding down the fort.
