Belinda's Thoughts

Busy as always

Finally I have a few minutes to sit down and check mail and write in my blog. I was able to go to a used book sale on Saturday that my friends and I look forward to every year. I have been looking for a unit study written by Christian Cottage for a reasonable price and found volume 1 for $8.00, I was very excited about that. I really just wanted to look it over and then decide if we will use it or not. Today was grocery store day and that always takes up alot of time. While I was at the grocery store my middle daughter said a neighbor came up and wanted to talk to me about homeschooling. His seventh grade daughter has had trouble with kids in the middle school wanting to beat her up and even trying to cut her hair. Then he proceeded to ask my daughter some questions, and then came the big one. What about socialization? I cant imagine being concerned about that after the socialization she has already put up with in the public school system. He said he would come back and talk with me about it later. I hope I can give him the information he is looking for as I do think they are a unsaved family and maybe that will open some doors in their life. Well off to church we go shortly and I get to scrapbook tomorrow with some friends, I look forward to that every other week. Thanks for reading!

I am Traci and I JUST posted about something similar yesterday! Socialization in public school is NOT what it's cracked up to be at all! The downside is if you only have 1 child (as I do) how do they make GOOD friends? I have a few ideas I'll have to try out like a book club and such but I will be praying for open doors with your neighbor. His situation seems far worse than what we were starting to encounter before I could take my DD out of public school (I was a single mom until this January.)

Side note:I really enjoyed visiting your blog and I will be back! I just LOVE the pics of your family!

Blessings,
Traci :)

Paisley is my first grandchild and she is two years old. I have been married to my husband, Bill, for nearly 29 years now. I am a follower of Christ and I love to camp, scrapbook, and I'm an avid reader.
