I am a littl unsure on where to start.  I have never journaled for others to read.  A little about myself might be in order, I guess.

I am 33.  I have been married 13 years.  I have 5 children.  2 boys and 3 girls.  I cherish them all.  My little one is turning 1 tomorrow.  We celebrated her birthday last weekend because her daddy is off the island this weekend.  We will go to church tomorrow and just hang around the house and continually sing her Happy Birthday.  Perhaps we will take her for a walk in her new push car.  Try and make her feel special.  That is really what a birthday is about right?  Just making sure that the person knows that you are blessed to have them in your life. 

I only home school 4 of them.  Technically 2 of them since the other 2 are 2 1/2 and just turning 1.  My 13 year old goes to school.  I am really trusting God with that.  Some days it is very hard for me.  I know that God knows what is best and I trust that HE would bring him (my son) home if that was what He wanted. 

Other details about me.  I am the oldest of 2 children.  My parents are still living.  Our relationship is much improved and seems to continue to get better as the years go by.  My brother and I are also doing much better.  God has really answered prayer there.  My brother is a recovering drug addict for a little over 100 days now.  Thank you God.  I am a Christian, I redicated my life to God 6 years ago.  He has changed me in so many ways.  I am truly blessed.  

Well, I have to get off now.  I am exhausted and I am determined to clean and mop the office. My contacts are stuck like glue to my eyes so forgive the slopiness.  I hope this even makes sense.  LOL!!!  It has been a long day.  I was just excited to get this set up.

We moved here from Texas and we're supposed to be here until December 5th, but we could be extended again. I'm hoping for that really. I love it here and it's been a really great place for our family. I love this website because you get to hear thoughts from homeschool moms in all situations. Your having your oldest in public school is sure to be something that other moms struggle with. You never know when your struggles and truimphs and even your challenges can help someone else. Or someone else in a similar situation might be able to help you with an area you struggle with. Iron sharpens iron, right? I'm looking forward to hearing more from you. Keep blogging please. I'm glad you enjoyed the CB blog. It's funny how God can use the strangest things to get his message accross.
