Blogger Friend School
 This
is the last Blogger Friend School assignment for the year! Thank you to Tamara
for starting this, and to Nancy
for continuing it.
Here is this week's assignment from Nancy's
blog:
Well, it's here, the last week of BFS until next September. Tamara and I have
talked and she doesn't feel like she can commit to the BFS next year, so I'll
be continuing on with it until she's more able to do so. I hope you'll all sign
up to participate again in the Fall. Our participation fell off quite dramatically
once the warmer weather set in but I've thoroughly enjoyed being the hostess
for this meme. For this assignment I thought I'd follow suit and use what Tamara
did for last year's assignment.

Training Hearts
With summer rapidly approaching, (UGH…I feel the heat already), many
homeschoolers are finishing up and planning some summer events.
Please share this week on your blog, some of your plans for keeping cool, relaxing,
vacationing and planning ahead for the upcoming school year. Add your favorite
verse for this assignment.
We homeschool year-round, with our summer school schedule being sporadic and
light. We will finish up a light version of Tapestry of Grace Year 2 Unit 4,
do a little writing and math, and enjoy our Creator's outdoor world.
June and July are always very active and adventurous months at our house. We
are planning our church's vacation Bible school and a large annual outreach,
both of which take place at the end of June. My husband, two sons and I are
going on a short-term missions trip in July, while the girls spend a fun time
with my parents-in-law. August should find us finishing up our light school
schedule and relaxing, while I finish planning the start of a new school year.
We grabbed a quick vacation over Memorial Day weekend, fishing and relaxing
with my family in northern Michigan. It was a wonderful trip; just what we needed
before plunging into our busy season!
"Woe to me!" I cried. "I am ruined! For I am a man of unclean
lips, and I live among a people of unclean lips, and my eyes have seen the King,
the Lord Almighty." Then one of the seraphs flew to me with a live coal
in his hand, which he had taken with tongs from the altar. With it he touched
my mouth and said, "See, this has touched your lips; your guilt is taken
away and your sin atoned for." Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying,
"Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?" And I said, "Here
am I. Send me!" Isaiah 6:5-8

Thank you for your comment. I was hoping to honor Tamara for her dedication to the BFS by carrying on with it during her time to rest. We start school back in late July, so we actually get a total of about a month away from book work during parts of May and June. Thank you for your post and for your participation this year! It's been great having you and I pray that you'll participate again next year. I've got a little surprise planned for the new year.

Our summers look a lot alike. We have a trip in June such that we will also see family. July is a missions month for us (a family first), and I just found out that I may have to adjust our August start date because of a dance workshop that the kids are looking forward to involving themselves in. I am determined to not take on too much, but it looks as if alot is chasing me!
We hit the 90's as of yesterday, so it looks as if we're in for a hot one! God bless you, Andi!

May Adonai truly speak to you as you serve him on His Mission trip..I've never been, one day I hope to, one day I hope my children will too. I certainly am blessed as I serve him right here in my own community..
