A World without walls
everyday life while homeschooling overseas
I have a friend who took a picture a day for the last year she was in her most recent post. I thought that sounded like a great idea! Unfortunately, I forgot about it until just now...and we have less than a year left. Oh well. I'm still going to do it. It's important to have goals--I REALLY need to be more diligent in keeping a record! And, I want to focus not only on the fact that I still have time left here in Sri Lanka, but focus on the positive. We just began bidding this week, and I'm honestly losing sleep over it. I'm so curious! I want to know where we're going so that I can start planning and moving things forward!!! However, no matter how much I want that, handshakes still won't be given out until the end of October, and we won't leave until next summer! I need to be patient and enjoy the place where I AM.
So today, something I love (and will miss!!) about Sri Lanka: our coconut tree!! What you see in this picture are coconut macaroons made for me by Devin! They are made from freshly shredded coconut from the tree in our yard, along with eggs, maple syrup, and vanilla. That's it. And they are spectacular! This was dinner tonight. I love fresh coconut.

Emily's books
by Dan Brown
I like that the plot twists and turns a lot...and it makes you think. However, I don't appreciate Dan Brown's endings in his books. I find the endings incongruent with the rest of his stories--why make it a romance for the last chapter...
by Shannon Hale
I loved this book. I'm a sucker for fairy tales/fantasy. This was so well written! I can't wait to read all the rest of her books!

I'm reading this one again. I liked it the first time I read it. I'm still liking it for the second time around. I like all of Shannon Hales' books.
**Still lots of fun the second time around! I do like this book for a comfortable...
