Beginning Our Journey
Feb. 18, 2007
Gods Unseen Blessings and just other ramblings.
Well life is interesting. Everyone is sick in the Irwin house hold. We had a fun night on Thursday at the ER with Tristan. But to be honest I don't want to relive it by typing it anymore. Lets just say he was dehydrated and 12 times of IVs didnt work they finally went into his shin bone. That is a horrid thing for a mother and father. I am still having a hard time dealing with it. I know and praise God that is all we have had to deal with though because life could be so much worse. Who knows the countless miracles that go unknown to us that God saves our little ones from facing.
I was holding him while he was falling asleep this morning (we stayed home from church due to his ear infection, watching his bone for infection and nastey colored snot). I was thinking how God wants us to do things in secret. Not shout it out to the world. I started thinking he often wants us to model his own actions. And I wondered how much God actually spares our family or does for us that we don't know of. What could have beens. Thank you Jesus for your hand of protection on my family.
Alyssa and I are chugging along with homeschooling. I have everything for next year here and I am already piecing it together. Sonlight, MathUSee, some home Economics, Learning Language Arts Through Literautre and MindBenders. For Science I decided to hold off on starting Jeannie Fulbrights until next year when Tristan can join us. We will be using Five Min Devotions and more Five min devotions and lots of magic schoolbus books that we own. And a few experiments here and there. I am having fun looking at all my goodies and planning my year already. Yes I am that obsessive about things.
We are doing an experiment now where you food color the flowers water. I got some white carnations really cheap after Valentines day. It looks really pretty on my window against the white snow outside. I have a picture I just need to upload it.
