It was a great day. Aside from a massive headache, and a problem with one of the rental houses, it was a happy day. It feels like April out! And... Alexx and Brian came home tonight from their 2 week vacation in NY. They had lots of funny stories to tell. It is nice to have them back here. Yesterday in NY it was 7 degrees! So they are pretty happy to be back as well. They had a wonderful time and made lots of memories. They will be back tomorrow to sit with the kids for 2 nights. Mike and I will be going all the way to Myrtle Beach(ha ha) for an anniversary weekend, or more appropriately, mid-week. He had already planned on doing something, and was looking into a beach house, when he entered a drawing and won a 2 night stay at a resort in Myrtle. We will still be close if the kids need us, but it is right on the coast!!! So, Alexx and Brian have decided that them coming here would be better for everyone. I am sure they will all have a blast! They all seem to get along so well. The kids absolutely adore Brian. And Jessie and Alexx have never gotten along so well as they do now that they don't live together. I have been getting very inspired to write in this blog everyday. I noticed that I passed the 5000 mark!!! Wow. I so want to use this site as an avenue...or maybe a boulevard.....or perhaps a highway. I don't know, something where all the things in my head can just come out on this screen, and somehow mean something.I know that this is a homeschooling blog site, so I may just start a new blog. Not sure yet. I just don't do a lot of talking about school here. I probably should. But talking about what I do all day, would be tiring. I mean, I just lived it, then write about it. And it is work sometimes. And who writes about work. I want to write about the stuff that matters. Like the awesome field trips. The great life skills, and life lessons that not only the kids learn, but I learn as well. The snuggle time, the story times, the crying together times. School for me is so much more than the books and the math and the grammar. While all these things are so important, I don't want to only focus on that. That is what regular school does. It is something special for me. We have just a few short years to train up the children. I know that when my part is over, they will be ready for adulthood. So, I look so forward to my time with Mike. We so need that. I am thankful for a daughter and son-in-law that are willing to stay here and help us out in that way. I am very proud of them. I can't wait to one day be able to babysit for them!!!!Now THAT will be great. And believe me, when that happens, I will be blogging about it. So, for all you that would rather read about school, this may not be the blog to read. But, for those of you who want to have fun, grow, and get into my world,,,,read on. Until I get back home........ |
