Life has been so crazy this week, trying to get back into the swing of things after being away for the weekend. And now, DH (whodesparately needs a better blog name-- I think I called him Runner Man once, but that sounds just totally stupid) is gone to his cousin's wedding in Florida. So, it's me and the boys this weekend (tacos tonight, pizza tomorrow, grilled cheese on Saturday in case your wondering how the other half lives). I haven't even posted last week's review (and it was a good school week ! Hugs has actually --- gasp! -- enjoyed Renaissance art history) and being on a plane has made me percolate on things I may want to write about.
THEN, Tapestry of Grace did this really mean thing and came out with a 3-week sample of their Year 2 American History curriculum (I think I deleted my wishy washy blog entry about wanting to use TOG but being undecided on whether to use it for our second half of US history). Sheesh! So I printed that out and have that to distract me from watching the rest of 24's season 4 (I love TV on DVD -- no commercials!). So, be patient. Don't not-ever come back. I promise I'll do something this weekend. Oh, and if you really, really can't stand being without something from me, head on over to Confessions of a Pioneer Woman for a hilarious read.
We are a Christian family educating our 3 boys: Hugs (8), Smiley (5), and Giggles (2). We've chosen to use mostly classical homeschooling methods, though this could change as the Lord leads us. I've started this blog because I have wanted to journal about our homeschooling experience, and life in general, but it is nearly impossible to sit with paper and pen. So, I'll write about where the Lord is leading our homeschool, how we're doing with it, and other bits about life with 3 boys.
(Yes, I realize that my boys will hate their online monikers in a few more years!)
