Well, I sprained my ankle saturday.  I would have welcomed the convalescence that follows if the house hadn't been a wreck.  My wonderful DH did several loads of laundry and dishes on Sunday and the boys are stepping up and doing all sorts of things I didn't think they could do! Amazing how inability on my part, brings out hidden abilities on their part.  It's like their maturity and responsibleness take a leap forward at such times.  

I'm kind of glad I have a legitimate excuse to sit around and do nothing though!  Cindy Rushton's Ultimate Homeschool Expo 2008 is going on this week and talk about AWESOME!!!  It's only $40.00 and you get a ton of freebies and audio downloads on top of the speakers and vendors.  I'm looking forward to the speakers today (Successful home management with Toddlers, Socialization: understanding the issue and seeking options, and Teaching your children a lesson they won't forget: writing, drawing, and learning from nature, What does God see when he looks at me?). 

 The rest of the week is just as awesome: From Chaos to Order: Organization in your home, Creative playtimes, Blogging with a purpose, The Value of Motherhood, Helping your Child Find Their Life Purpose, Homeschooling at the Speed of Life, Secret to Supermarket SAvings, The only kind of mom God uses, Unit studies, God is Sufficient, Spirit-led homeschool, Homeschooling Toddler to Teens, Finding Freedom and Simplicity while seeking Biblical Excellence, Hands on HIstory, STraight talk to dads, Unleashed into your Future, WHo are your Child's Heroes, FAmily Routines: Keys to a Peaceful, Productive, Purposeful homelife, How can I teach Art when no one taught me?,  What will they remember? 

It's not too late to get a ticket if you still want to attend : www.tinyurl.com/4jw74e.  The seminars that have already happened will be available in a few weeks on the website.  I'll probably NEVER attend an IRL conference again!  Nearly everything on the website will be available indefinately. There are 3500+ in attendance at UHSE 08!! Please join us!
