Well today is Thanksgiving and in a few short minutes I need to make sure my children get up and than make sure my husband gets up. We are all packed and ready to make the trip to the grandparents house for the holiday. I realize this seems picturesque at this point however wait till we get there. Most likely my parents will be arguing over the turkey the kids will run in excited and full of energy. My husband and I will be bringing in the luggage. We will unpack I will then enter the kitchen that will look like a disaster. My mom will look at me and say "Oh good your here. I need your help." Now help is a word that refers to someone in need of assistance not hey everything needs to be done and look at the load of dishes that you have to do already. That is how my next few days at my parents will be spent. Cooking, cleaning, watching children, taking care of dogs (my parents have two really disturbed dogs) cooking, cleaning, watching children, taking care of dogs. Every year I think we risk our necks in the snow so I can do more than I have to do at home? Than I look at my children and I see how very happy they are being around their papa and granny and I think well it will all be over in 20 or so years. Happy Thanksgiving everyone.

When was thanksgiving? Hmmm, it has been so long ago that I hardly remember it at all.
LOL!! Just kidding friend. So what are you doing in homeschool now? Do you use a special curriculum? I was thinking when we move by you that you could teach my kids. It would be a great arrangement. They could do your housework too! They are very handy!
Let me know what you use. :)
