This week’s theme is about your family. Don’t worry. I’m not going to make you write a long essay about all the great things your family does. Just something little diddy that I know everyone will have fun with!
Watch the youtube video below and then take this song and add your own words, about your family. The end of the first three lines should rhyme. Can’t wait to see what you come up with!
Okay I finally got this done, it sounds kind of stupid but, I did it anyway lol..This took alot of thought.
I also added the video because I have some readers that come to visit and thought it would be cute to have on my blog for them to listen to.

A Homeschool Family
This week we are supposed to share some of our favorite things that encourage us and where we find support, I am most thankful for the support I receive at home, especially the support I get from my wonderful husband Wayne, he is a wonderful Godly Husband and Father and I am thankful each day that the Lord has blessed my life with him~I also love the fact that my children love homeschooling and how much fun it is to do things with them and how cool it is to see them learn.
Planning your homeschool is a lot of fun, especially if you’re going to be trying something new. Just like finding a shiny new penny you’re excited to use it. Mother Dear has been planning some new curriculum for us, and I am plenty excited to get started on it. This week I hope you’ll share something new you’re using, why you’ve decided to use it, and if you have used it how you like it. Make sure to include the publishing information and where you got it from so others can look into if they like.
Well, we were going to use K12 but it just doesn't work with our family so, we went back to the curriculum we have used before and it always works for us. We use School of Tomorrow and I am trying to also use lapbooking along with this as well as Teach Music and Art and add some Science Experiments to our Schooling. We also started doing Nature Walks each week. I am also looking into Lighthouse Christian Academy which they use the paces but, keep your childrens records. For more information on that I have included the link.
Our Assignment this week is to post what your planned homeschool routine is. The theme banner should give you some ideas on how to do that. I had fun making that and adding in real info (except for the times! lol).

I am a Christian Mother and Love the Lord with all my heart. This is my little place to share with my family and friends whats on my heart and how the Lord continues to bless me through my family.
I love to share the Lord with others and I love the fact that he has blessed me with 4 beautiful children and that he has trusted me with them.
I love being a wife to the greatest man in the world and I am honored to be blessed to have him in my life.
I also love to scrapbook and make cherished memories of my family.
