This Old SchoolHouse

Most of you ladies that read blogs are homeschoolers so the majority of you may already get this magazine. But this is a really great magazine with great articles and a little bit of everthing.

Pajamas


My Favorite Jammies. Purple with Monkeys and Penguins sledding.

Favorite Mug


A mug has three different occupations. 1: It can be already used and to be in the photo must be plucked out of the dishwasher. 2: It can be clean and ready to hold some tea. Or 3: it can be a pen and pencil/anything that will fit into this cup.

I'm feeling sheepish or Baaaa humbug

Definition of: I'm feeling Sheepish

I have a tendency to speak before I really think things out. That feeling of "I really want to crawl under the rug at this moment in time." Like right here at this moment I'm feeling sheepish because I have no good example to show just how many time I say this phrase or think it in a normal day.

Puzzled


We have a card table set up in the room with the wood stove in it. The perfect spot to go with a cuppa to put together a puzzle or to paint. Or just plain go hide away from um the other inhabitants of this house.

Teacup


This is a really funky and cool teacup that mom received from her secret sister some while ago. Somehow it made its way onto my bookshelf and has sat there happily for 5 years.

Dolls

Sitting pretty, waiting for a tea party.

I once had a sweet doll, dears,
The prettiest doll in the world;
Her cheeks were so red and so white, dears,
And her hair was so charminly curled.
But I lost my poor little doll, dears,
As I played on the heath one day;
And I cried for her more than one week, dears,
But I could never find where she lay.
I found my poor little doll, dears,
As I played on the heath one day;
Folks say she is terribly changed, dears,
For all her paint is washed away,
And her arm is trodden off by the cows, dears,
And her hair not the least bit curled;
Yet for old times sake, she still is, dears,
The prettiest doll in the world.
The Lost Doll
