I am the wife of a soldier, and the mother of two little ones (ages 3 and 1). I am passionate about my God, my family, and my country. I chose the title for my blog because I started it around the time that we found out my husband would be going to Iraq. I am so proud of his service to our country. Also I am constantly striveing to become more like christ. Hence the title "passionate patriot conforming to 'His' image.
I will be ordering some more Thoene books to read
Jan. 15, 2008~ Monday meanderings. ~
Things that must get done this week.
Must finish the syllabus for the classes I am teaching this semester.
Must register for homeschool coop.
must get my office back in order.
I need to pay bills on Tuesday.
laundry
I need to get back to my organized mom's handbook. I got away from it these last 3 months, and my life is very unorganized at the moment. I am slowly getting back on schedule thought. I am hoping to be able to start back on my home blessing next week.
Meal Plan
I don't have a meal plan for this week either. It will mostly be whatever I pull from the freezer, and spaghetti. Last week I did use my seal a meal and put up some meals in the freezer. I am finding that without my husband here to eat the meals can be split in half, and last twice as long. I cut the food budget and put it elsewhere. We just do not need to buy as much when he is gone.
Train up your child.
Right now, we are working on learning to read, and I am hoping to start him with JBQ (junior Bible quizz) fairly soon. The boy is good at memorizing things.
