It took about 1/2 hour + printing time to get ready for school next week.  We're starting our mini-unit on the Civil War, and my son will be reading A Nation Torn.  We're finishing up Uncle Tom's Cabin for literature.  Meanwhile, my youngest son is at quite a quick pace through Algebra II.  I keep wondering when he will feel that math is a challenge.  It hasn't happened yet.  

I'm still pondering and praying over his options for next school year.  He is to the point where he absolutely will need someone to teach him Physics.  I can teach Trig/Calculus, but maybe having someone else for math would be a good idea too.  Maybe I can switch out teaching Year 4 of Tapestry for science and math?  I need to keep praying for God's answer in this regard.

In other news, I'm almost finished with my part of Year 1 Redesigned.  I have more proofreading, but that's about it.  My faithful assistant and I will probably go out to eat to celebrate!  We've started Year 2 Redesigned and have learned to much about managing our time, who is more gifted in which area, and how to make our product more appealing.  God has been good to lead us through this journey!  We pray that God will be glorified and that many families will be ministered to!

 Oh my goodness...where did all of the cool emoticons go?  And...what's going on with the spacing?  I can't get it to space between paragraphs.
