THE MISSION!!!

This mission, if you chose to accept it, is to get through this year with a senior, a 2nd grader a highly rambuncious 4yo ball player (any kind of ball will do as long as it is thrown or kicked where and when it shouldn't be!!) while helping with church nursery, Awanas, homeschool group mentor programs, 3 friends who are also new homeschoolers, 2 friends expecting babies who need help with their older children, and somewhere in there bake goodies to mail to a special cadet, send mail to overseas friends, have something resembling meals on the table at least 3 times per day, keep the dirt and laundry from attacking, all while maintaining a transcript up-to-date, learning to cook meals for a recently diagnosed diabetic bear (including 6am breakfasts and spending a few moments alone in the cave with him!), keep up with the yard, garden and orchard, all done without losing your sanity.  Hmmmm.... "All things are possible WITH GOD!!"  I'd better add that quiet time to the equation!  What's YOUR mission?? !!

Aug. 29, 2006 - You scare me

Posted by hugabunchmom
I am going to be in the very same place in just a few years. Wow, in homeschooling right now I have a 9th grader and my "should be 2nd grader" who is really working a couple of years behind, and then my 16 month old. So, in three years, I'll be where you are. My oldest is at college, just joining ROTC, and so I may very probably be sending military care packages by that time as well! My 16 month old loves throwing now, I can picture him as a serious ball player in just a few short years. I better get on that Quiet Time a little more strongly right NOW in preparation and continued work right now!!! Oh yah, love the turtle!!! (hate the snake)
