Things got so busy recently, and I will admit Im much better at the networking sites.  Which is kinda funny because I use to keep a journal all the time.  It was a way for me to get things out.  I don't know why I don't feel that is important now.  Maybe its because it gives me something else I need to do.

Things are going well.  I do really enjoy the choice that we made this year to go with a virtual accademy.

It has helped me to be more organized and it has helped at least two of my kids to be that way too.  I am concerned about Ryan.  He really struggled this last semester.  So much so that he is going to have to work at making things up.  I worry because he knows what he wants to do.  He wants to go to a Christian University in TX to be a youth pastor, which touches my heart! Im worried that he will give up on his goal because of a rough patch in the road.  I know that this is what the Lord has called him to do, I just think that the Lord is trying to strengthen him while its in the process.  I really want to support him and help him along this path.  I just know that he is made for this. 

Beckah is amazing, she loves her work and she is eager to do it.  She finishes with plenty of time, and it basically my little assitant.  She takes pride in her work, and I truly appreciate that.  Im glad that she has found a love for work and learning.  I never had it until I was much older.  She is well on her way to many good opportunities.

Raelynn is the youngest of the four children I had with my first husband, and she has the Im the youngest syndrome really bad.  She is eager to learn but wants me to do all the work for her.  I sttruggle a little bit with it.  This is the first time I have done elementary school age for homeschool.  So Im a bit green with it.  She seems to have a love for science, history and art.  She really would rather stay away from reading and writing and math.  Can't say as I blame her, but I really need to figure something out to make this something she enjoys.  Im just haveing trouble coming up with that.

All in all Im thrilled with our year so far and look forward to continuing!
