Aug. 16, 2007 - Preparations

This Sunday presents the first day of school for our family. It is with much anticipation and preparation that I began my third year as an official home educator, though I've been educating my 'students' since birth. Curriculums have arrived, school supplies have been organized and stored in their owners' drawers, lesson plans have been carefully scrutinized and written out, library books have been obtained, material has been gathered. I continue to feel so very grateful for the opportunity to keep my dear children at home, teaching them and guiding them as I, their God-ordained teacher and trainer, see fit. I feel very grateful to my husband who supports our education endeavor wholeheartedly. I feel grateful to our government, who gives me the freedom to choose to homeschool. And I am ever so grateful to my Heavenly Teacher, who equips me every step of the way.
This year I will be officially homeschooling both of the boys. I've been pondering, and will continue to do so, I'm sure, how to juggle teaching both boys while occupying a toddler and tending to an infant. I know there are many who have done so successfully (and juggled many more!!!!) and it is their learned experiences that I'll be seeking to tap into, most certainly!
As the placenta fog is lifting and life settles into somewhat of a pattern, I've actually had some bloggable thoughts lately and look forward to sharing those in the near future. However, the delights of the day have made my warm bed ever so appealing and so I give in to its beckoning!!! Good night!
