Well, I did not get to post very much in the last month or so. We were SUPER busy with field trips, ELO, Scentsy sales and Christmas. But it was WONDERFUL to relax, visit with family and plan for the new year! Last week I started working on the boys' schedules for the rest of the semester and realized we only have 18 weeks of our school left!
Yep, that's right. May 16th should be our last day of school, if all goes well :) So excited that we will have some extra time off before it gets too terribly hot and the garden starts coming in. Another reason we LOVE homeschooling! The first day back this semester, after the boys finished their school work, it was outside to start tilling up the garden spot. Jamison drove and tilled and Edison added up how many seeds would be needed per row and how much of each veggie we would plant and what the total price would be. Gardens are GREAT for school!
On another note... I am reading this wonderful book that I just picked up by chance! I got it at church the other day with a lot of other books that someone was giving away for free(I think I could literally start my own library, sheesh!). I love it so far. It basically tells you how anyone can stay home and homeschool if that is what God is calling your family to do. It tells about their hardships and different ideas and tactics of how it is possible for anyone that is willing. Definitely recommend it!
Last but not least, I am teaching Jamison how to write a personal narrative this week with his BJU English curriculum. Lot harder than it sounds!! Trust me! He chose to write about Christmas Break and some of the funs things that we did. This is how he summed it up:
Turn my eyes away from worthless things; renew my life according to your word. Psalm 119:37
