We are definately experiencing spring weather! Sun one moment, hail the next. Unfortunately, we had to postpone the first meeting of the playgroup I'm trying to get going, due to showers... I have read today about a plan to open public BOARDING schools in Chicago, for kids who need "more structure" at home. We homeschoolers knew this was coming, it was only a matter of time... Our newspaper had an article about Ann Rice, the author of a series of books about vampires and others about witches (I've even read some of them) and also some "adult" literature under a pseudonym (no, I have never read any of those), that she has returned to the faith she had lost when she was younger and is no longer writing material she feels isn't appropriate for a Christian. I was so pleasantly suprised to hear that! That is wonderful, and I admire public figures who change the path they're on. It's a lot harder for them than us "regular" people, since they have so much more scrutiny from a public which isn't all that tolerant of Christianity anymore... Today I told my husband I'd need him for the day, because my friend up the road wanted to get rid of some furniture that I thought would look great in our daughter's room. She's outgrowing some of her toddler things. So my husband went over there and together with her husband, loaded up his truck with a bed with a bunk bed above and a playhouse below, with a slide and shelves attatched, and a dresser for our 6 year old (his old one was barely usable.) I feel really good about what we accomplished, because my daughter's bedroom looks terrific! I hadn't planned to take much time off for spring break, but I'm finding I really need it! I was feeling more tired of our school schedule than I had realized!
