Sunshine 24 January

The first work I did today was handwriting. My pages today were practicing the uppercase Y and lower case z in italics print. I completed 2 pages of work.

In math (Beta), I continued on to the next two pages. I am working on rounding to the nearest 100 with addition and subtraction.

I continued to prepare for my First Holy Communion by copying my Prayer after Confession into my album. The prayer is:

My Jesus, I thank you for washing

away my sins

in Your precious blood.

Help me to accept my cross each day

and not to hurt You.

I love You with my

whole heart and soul.

I have also memorized Psalm 42 (Douay-Rheims) and will recite it on Sunday night for my family:

Judge me, O God, and distinguish my cause from the

nation that is not holy: deliver me from the unjust and deceitful man.

For thou art God my strength: why has thou cast me off?

and why do I go sorrowful whilst the enemy afflicteth me?

Send forth thy light and thy truth:

they have conducted me and brought me unto thy holy hill,

and into thy tabernacles.

And I will go in to the altar of God:

to Go who giveth joy to my youth.

To thee, O God my God, I will give praise upon the harp:

why art thou sad, O my soul? and why dost thou disquiet me?

Hope in God, for I will still give praise to him:

the salvation of my countenance, and my God.

Lastly, Mom read a history lesson to us. We learned about Pocahontas and Jamestown.
