I'm a homeschool mom of 3 daughters. My aim in life is to glorify God by loving and serving my family, grow personally in my walk with Him, and being a Titus 2 woman to those younger than me. This blog is to share what God is doing in my life and in the life of our homeschool.
Princess is 9 years old . She was born a princess and continues to hold the title. She loves all things girlie and is talented in all things crafty.
Pixie is 7 and a half. She has a passion for truth, loves rocks and shells and has a huge collection of them.
Peanut is 5. She is fun loving, happy all the time and can make anybody laugh.
I have finally put together our school schedule for this year. I wanted to share what we are doing.
Princess: 4th grade Developmental Math Simply Grammar Reading- Robinson Curriculum Story of the World-read aloud and activity book Copywork- various good literature and bible verses Awana-2nd year TNT Typing- Maevis Beacon

Extracurriculars will include sewing, possible flute for Princess and Pixie. Princess will be working on cooking with mom this year. I hope to have her learn 5 dinners and 2 breakfast meals and 2-3 desserts including cookies.
Character Training: We will finish up Big Truths for Little Kids before moving on to Our 24 Family Ways by Wholeheart Ministries. We will also be going through Making Brothers and Sisters Best Friends. We are having struggles in this area and it needs to be delt with.
Looks good Susan! It's nice to see what those further down the road are doing. And thanks for the encouragement on my blog. When are you guys going to start school?
Hope things are settling down a bit for you.

Hi Susan,
I'm going to look into that Making Brothers and Sisters Best Friends book. We have big problems with constant bickering. There is one instigator in the family and hopefully that will help. Also, I'll have to get out my Shepherding a Child's Heart book and see what the heart issue is.
Your curriculum sounds great. I'll pray you have a great year.
Oh, my next posting (in a few days) will be about what a small world we have and I'm including pictures -- YOU are the only other one who knows what that blog is about, since you are part of it! I'll have to e-mail you and tell you about how things went.
Jennifer :)
Sounds like you have your school year all covered.. And it will be an exciting new year... Your little dolls are going to learn a lot... *** Have a super day!! Suzie =)
