Jan. 18, 2008 - A new year... |
Wow! It has been quite awhile since my last post!
We have started homeschooling-yeah! We decided to let the boys finish out the semester (until Christmas) at school (public) which we feel was a good choice. I used this time (at the request of hubby) to try an organize our school room and order/prepare what we were going to need.
The holidays went really well. We were able to visit with family and friends in Virginia (who we miss dearly!) and then come back to a foot of snow (the boys were quite happy!)
I have to give God praise here- my boys have had an amazing heart toward school at home. I'm grateful that we took them out of school because of our own personal convictions and not because they were having a hard time. We were truly blessed by their teachers-they have a love for their children and their jobs. Their classmates were great and we were happy with the school. Thus saying this, the boys have really amazed me at their attitudes towards homeschooling, being that they do miss their classes and friends.
God has been so very faithful in our walk here. He brought us through the summer of much change and now here we are... homeschooling, I'm back at home and my dear hubby has just been given a promotion at work- I am AMAZED at how all of this is unfolding- Lord you are knocking my socks off! The Lord has also given me fresh eyes for school and shown me the reason why were doing this. I wasn't sure before why we were homeschooling. Our friends were and we "knew" it was the right choice but I didn't really know why "we" were doing it..what reason did God want us to do it? He answered.
I'm loving my Lord. I'm overwhelmed, I'm grateful, I'm in awe..and I'm so excited about what is to come. I know the summer is coming and we've discussed if I'll have to work. At first I started stressing but I know the Lord is going to take care of us- be it me still at home or me having to work--I know it will be good either way, because it will bring us somewhere He wants us and closer to Him-AMEN!
Have a blessed evening! May your family be filled with love, your heart with joy, and your eyes be refreshed!
God bless you!
