“How fun!” I find myself exclaiming this many times throughout the week. Here are just a few things that touched me or made me smile:

Lily of the valley flowers not only smell fantastic, they also are very interesting to look at.  Did you know they had so much color under there?

I just started Say Goodbye to Survival Mode by Crystal Paine.  I love a good goal setting book!  With that in mind, here are my June goals:

1.)  I signed up for this Jon Acuff group.  I’m hoping to see some change in June!

2.) I am going to clean out our enclosed front porch.  There may even be before and after photos.  It is definitely not “beauty observed” right now!

3.) I am going to walk 30 minutes a day, five days a week.  I am stating it in the affirmative.  It will happen.  It MUST happen.

4.) I plan to garden.  And weed.  And garden.  And weed.  And maybe some weeding.

5.) Implement the new summer schedule for June.  As you may know, I home educate our children.  I have done all sorts of different things over the years, but this year, we are taking the summer off!!!!!  I’ve made a new summer schedule and am looking forward to it.  I will admit that there are a few fun, educational projects on the agenda.  😉

Care to share any of your June plans?  You can read about what I learned in May here.

Have a great weekend! Remember Philippians 4:8. “whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.”
