Homeschooling a Houseful

My day today

Today we spent the day at our homeschool co-op. We drive about 1 hour to the location and I have really found myself looking forward to Wednesdays. When we joined the co-op in September, I wondered what I was doing. I like to stay home, I need to stay home. The best way to get things done is to stay home. But at the same time I knew that our family needed something. The children just weren't having any fun and neither was I. I tend to be a bit of a task-master. I am very goal oriented and like to see things run smoothly and get done. I had been seeking the Lord for what His will would be for the children regarding the sense of burn-out I was feeling. I was feeling like they needed some schooling that was fun. He provided this wonderful group for us to join. The children are enjoying their co-op classes. Our classes include a pottery class, weight lifting, jewelry making, grossology, and more.

I have found a couple new friends that I have grown to treasure. What a blessing for me as I really need to have some fellowship with other ladies, even though I wouldn't have thought that I did. Today I received so much encouragement from our converstation. I feel revived a bit and ready to tackle a new day and get some things back on track for our family. Things seem to go by the wayside during pregnancy and about this time (when baby is 2 months old) I start to get a little cranky because things are not running the way they should be.
