Little Monkey has done so well this past year with his K3 work.  He has blown us all away in his skills and we PRAISE the Lord for the brain and wanting to learn He has Blessed Little Monkey with!

We have officially ended our K3 year and we are doing some "unschooling" for the summer.  Taking things as they come along and working on those things that need to be continally worked on.  #1 for right now is behavior and first time obedience.  It seems we work on this a lot lately.  I pray one day it won't be such a hard concept to stick with for Little Monkey!

This year we attended our first Homeschool Conference.  It was great.  We bought some used books and then we ordered our new books for the coming school year.  Since we are having our 3rd Blessing in September we really felt that it would benifit us all to use a curriculm that was already planned out.  My Beloved and I both know ABeka pretty well and we really love it compaired to all the other Christian Curr that is out there!  So we prayed for God's guidance and for the most part we are using all ABeka.  Originally we had planned to do Reading, Writing and Phonics on a K4 level, everything else on a K5 level (sciene we are making up as Little Monkey has already finished the K5 science this past year).  But after going to the conference and seeing the books up close and getting to read them and look at the insides we decided that K4 REading, Writing and Phonics was past Little Monkey and we are Officially doing ALL K5 work this coming year!  We are so excited and so is Little Monkey.  We pray that God continues to give him the Blessing of learning well!

We still have 1 more year before we are "officailly" in "school" but more than likely Little Monkey will be starting his first year of "real school at home" on a 1st grade level!  Praise the Lord!
