Homeschooling Is Life! - First Day of Fall---what did YOU do today?

• Sep. 22, 2008 - First Day of Fall---what did YOU do today?

Hi friends!

Well, we were given several boxes of peaches to process, so we started that job. Whew! After all the tomatos we have done and okra, peppers...what's a few peaches?

My kids decided we needed to fly a kite today, but first we had to buy one. Had to go to three stores, before we found one very pricey kit. But we had a great time! Packed a picnic, brought paper and crayons for leaf rubbings and enjoyed the day. Then for dinner, the little guy (10) and I made spring rolls with cabbage, turkey, corn, peppers, onions, green beans and carrots. YUM! And, EASY. That is good for me!

I love my sitemeter :) You already know that. Look at this entry:

I wish this dear friend from Rushden would have left me a comment! 44 minutes? You spent that much time over here? Wow. That is so amazing. I'd love to know what brought you over here to Homeschooling Is Life! I'm so glad you had time to read some of my blogs and hope it was an encouragement to you. If you come back by and see this, please stop for a moment and say hello!

About Me

Hi There!

Welcome to my blog.
How nice of you to drop in. What is this all about you say? Well, take a look and see.

Just like the plants springing forth we are following the Son, soaking up the living water and pulling the weeds. We can't wait to see what will bloom THIS growing season!

Oh, and just for fun, I will tell you a little about me, since that is what this space is for. :)

I am a mother of four lovely kids who are perfectly human in every way. They are sinful, selfish, loving, happy, grumpy, excited, capable, frustratable, (I know, that isn't a word but sometimes I make up my own) and sometimes contrite, and just like their parents. But they are ours and we think they are all keepers!

We have homeschooled them all since birth with the trial and error method. I think they all have "made the grade" and they are now 16, 13, 11 and 9 years old.

We're not experts, except in the area of making mistakes and living to tell about them and hopefully learn from them! We hope you will find some encouragement here as you read about the seasons of our life as a homeschooling family.
