• Aug. 31, 2007 - Chaos is key....

Or I think sometimes it just has to be.  ;)  So yesterday the girls and I had a great day of school in the morning an we got ready for our regular book study as a small group of ladies and I are going through "Created to be His Help meet" by Debi Pearl.  I'll tell you, it's hard to read at times but definitely beneficial and a worthy read for any woman who wants to be all that she can be for her husband.  Carl is in Iraq and he's seen changes in me that are amazing to him.  Can't wait until he is home !  ;)  Ok, well, after the short book study we had the Usborne book lady come to our home.  Keep in mind that right at this point there were about 14 kids at our home.  It was great!  We love these books as they are so colorful and cheerful in their presentation of education.  At one point we had kids sprawled in every possible space reading books of their own choosing.  I'll have fun placing my order in a few days!  ;)  I'm a book fiend to the core.  We can hardly pass them up!

After she left one of the families ended up hanging around and so since we were having company for pizza anyway we just asked her to stay as well.  It ended up being a GREAT time.  We just were all so free and we laughed until we cried.  The kids had a blast and I felt so blessed to have the friends and support that I have at this time.  We were sad to see the evening end although the kids were turning into pumpkins and I seriously needed to get them and myself to bed.  It was so much fun, though.  We just loved it.

On a more sad note, had a disagreement with another dear friend of mine and we are in the stages of reconciliation.  We have been friends for a long time and I'm very thankful for her.  :)

On a HAPPY note, Carl Wayne made rank!!!  His hard work has paid off!  So, congratulations to my dear, sweet, hard working Carl!!  Yay!!!  Believe me, making rank is not an easy thing so we were very happy!

So, until next time.....

About Me

Just a basic daily (or when I can) log of what we do in our homeschooling adventure with 4 girls ranging in age from 2 to seven. We are currently seeking a rather ecclectic/type approach using a little Charlotte Mason and lifestyle training in a very literature rich setting with a little this and that thrown in just to make it interesting.
