Joyfully Home

Jun. 29, 2006

I'm back! Finally, I have figured out how to get back into my blog to post. While I was gone, I did set up another blog and I will be moving everything back over here as soon as I have a chance.

Ahhh...it is good to be back.

I had an ultrasound yesterday and babe #3 is doing just fine. And now I am too. After the problems that I had in my last pregnancy, I couldn't help but worry. I tried not to, really. But I just couldn't let go of the fear. It is just amazing how much better I feel physically after seeing that little one wriggling around in there. I am always in awe of the miracle of new life.

As for homeschooling, I am still trying to find a happy middle ground. We love the freedom of unschooling but sometimes the chaos is a little too much for everyone. Going forward, I am just not sure what we will be doing. I really so enjoy shopping for curriculum.

Chloe starts horse camp in two weeks - jumping camp actually. She is not afraid at all. She is not even seven. I cannot believe she is going to learn to jump a horse. What a thrill for her. She is just get used to cantering!

Sweet Kaela is waking from her nap, and will be tearing the place apart momentarily, so that's all for now!

Thanks for your comment about Sonlight and unschooling on my blog. I read with interest your previous post on quilts and was excited to learn of another knitter on HSB. I LOVE all home arts. My mother taught me well. She is a quilter extroidanaire...I have much to learn from her still on that front. Am supposed to drive 5 hours north to her place soon to have a few weeks of 'sewing, quilting and just plain mom stuff'...waiting for 2nd car woes to be healed. Am anxious to know how your quilt turned out. As for schooling, we stumbled on to Sonlight as an answer to a prayer. This being my second go around at raising children, the daily planning was getting to me....just hard for me to be so creative on a daily basis at this age...Sonlight has been a life saver. Will add you to my friends list.
