This is my first time joining in with Weekly Wrap-Up and I am looking forward to this journaling opportunity to help keep me focused on my priorities!  If you're interested in joining this visit the following site and follow the directions:  My Heart's Desire

From the Heart:  This has been a tough week.  We came back from a wonderful vacation  to find my dad near a nervous breakdown.  I've spent much time going back and forth between my home and his apartment, taking him to doctor appointments and tests and feeling like I need to get back in touch with my own life.  I am just praying that some of the natural changes I've presented to him will help.

With the Lord:  I am finishing up a Beth Moore study on Daniel and I kept reminding myself all week that I do not want to live in selfish Babylon!  This alone has kept me going with some choices I had to make in what to do for/with my dad.  Will begin a Women of Faith study on my own this week to keep in the Word, but any suggestions for a wonderful personal study would be appreciated.

As Wife/Mom:  I have felt horribly insufficient.  I know there are times that we can't do the things that we usually do or want to do, but the feeling remains.  I'm just hugging on everyone more and making sure they know I appreciate how they've gone along with all the craziness due to grandpa this past week.  Throughout all of this I did manage to put a very cute Wall-E birthday cake together to celebrate Sweetie Boys 5th birthday today (Saturday).  I love you, buddy!

 In the Schoolroom:  The kids did begin their writing reviews as planned.  Turned out to be a great idea as Punkin' really did need the cursive review.  Sweetie Boy is just thrilled that he is going to be learning to read this year (fun Kindergarten stuff) and I am letting him practice his capital letters and numbers and "making" him work at using the line guides.  We've had a few tears and when that happens they receive a hug, a positive word and then get sent to their room for a 5 minute break.  Hopefully on Sunday I will find some uninterrupted time to get our "together school" ready to go (KONOS) and refamiliarize myself with the first week of plans I put together a couple months ago for reading, writing, spelling and math.
