Delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart

update

I figured I should update my last sad entry and not let people think I am still in a "funk".  I did a lot of praying and God gave me wisdom (through me, my husband and another homeschool mama).  I know I've had my priorities mixed-up but for some reason I just couldn't change. I figured I had to get everything done in a day so I was trying to homeschool, while at the same time run and clean a bathroom or put a load of laundry on. God told me that the morning is reserved for homeschooling and nothing else!  I get it now. It seems so clear. Prayer is a wonderful thing.  Big Daddy told me to have fun with DS1 first, before we start school. Help him feel loved and happy. So yesterday I did that. Well, I was going to, but Grandpa got there before me and was playing a game of pool with him. Today, it is my turn!  Then I took the curriculum I have and made it all hands-on. I told him he could stand or move around or do whatever he needed to do. I also wrote the answers for him. That way he could concentrate on learning and not having to worry about writing also. School wasn't perfect yesterday, but it was alot better! I almost forgot the best part. He and I prayed before we started school. He was all for that. I asked God to help DS1 to listen and obey and for me to have patience and not yell. I didn't yell once; there were a few times I came close, but God  helped me. We will be praying everyday before school!  Well, it is the morning and I'm not suppose to be doing anything except school, so I better go and get started. Thanks for all your prayers!

I just read you post about d1 having some special needs with school. I believe that if you homeschool a child and he has special learning needs the district still has to provide therapy's and that could include having an iep so that he isnt' forced to do more then he can . I would check with the dept of ed website . Good Luck.

Glad things went a little better! I agree with that last comment.
Couldn't hurt to look into it just to get the info.
