The Sunday Post is a weekly meme hosted by Kimba @ The Caffeinated Book Reviewer ~this meme was inspired in part by ~ In My Mailbox~ It's a chance to share News. A post to recap the past week, showcase books and things we have received and share news about what is coming up for the week on our blog.
Basketball moved straight into baseball. The kids had practice Monday night which has us in a new normal for a while. And of course because it was Dr. Seuss/Read Across America week the kids had all kinds of dress up days for school this week. Little Girl didn't participate in most of them. She didn't mind not and my practical self has a hard time buying items for a one time dress up day at school never to be used again. Tuesday, Husband took his mom to a small procedure. Wednesday was grocery day. Thursday we spent the day at my parents' house. The kids were supposed to have practice Thursday night but rain caused cancellations. Friday night Little Girl had her first school dance. Husband took her to that. I took the boys to a local trampoline park. Saturday morning I had a women's Bible study with the ladies from church. Husband took the kids to the park, and it turned out an event was going on at the park too so they had a blast. I worked with the kids throwing, catching, and batting Saturday afternoon. I haven't done much reading this week, but mostly that's because I'm way behind on reviews. I've got to force myself to sit down and type them up.

Goodreads description--From New York Times bestselling author Amy Harmon comes the saga of a young woman who dares to chart her own destiny in life and love during the American Revolutionary War.In 1760, Deborah Samson is born to Puritan parents in Plympton, Massachusetts. When her father abandons the family and her mother is unable to support them, Deborah is bound out as an indentured servant. From that moment on, she yearns for a life of liberation and adventure.
Twenty years later, as the American colonies begin to buckle in their battle for independence, Deborah, impassioned by the cause, disguises herself as a soldier and enlists in the Continental Army. Her impressive height and lanky build make her transformation a convincing one, and it isn’t long before she finds herself confronting the horrors of war head-on.
But as Deborah fights for her country’s freedom, she must contend with the secret of who she is—and, ultimately, a surprising love she can’t deny.
