The Fruits of My Blogging

I often wonder if my blogging is of benefit to anyone else but myself. I've not made time for blogging this school year like I did in '06. Other things have taken priority and there isn't time for blogging unless I  make time for it.     Does anyone still read my old blogs? The answer, I discovered about a month ago. I got a surprise email from a fellow homeschooling mom in Florida. She and her husband were getting ready to move their young family back to his hometown in  WV. She said that she did a Google search for "WV Christian Homeschool" to see if there was a local support group in our state. Voila! She found my blog! I think she read it all!     We emailed back and forth a few times and discovered that we indeed were kindred spirits.  Both of us trusting God daily for his leading in our lives. The family did indeed relocate and are presenting living just 15 minutes from my home!  I'm so anxious to welcome them to our home for dinner and fellowship, but unfortunately I've been sick with a respiratory bug for over two weeks! I'd not take a chance on infecting her dear brood for anything!     My children and I  were able to meet up with the McClanahan family last week at our support group's monthly meeting which we call, "Speak Up!" It's held at a local library at the beginning of each month. Our children have the opportunity to come and present their learning experiences in front of a "live studio audience!" This month we had many entertaining and encouraging presentations: the recitation of Bible verses, poetry, singing, painting and scrapbooking projects, face painting, guitar and piano playing,  the reading of a  book,  and a skit!      I think I'll put blogging back on my schedule. It is a worthwhile endeavor!
