20/21 School Year - Week 8

-

 This was the week of terrible note taking on my part!

Sunday we were still at the lake enjoying time together.

Monday we packed up and came home.  That is a chore!  Then Dad, Logan, and Savannah had doctor appointments.

Tuesday, Savannah worked mostly on her end of unit ASL study guide.  She also had class.  Logan and Lillian worked on their individual studies.  We then went to the Texarkana Library and ran a few errands.

Wednesday I had to go get my flu shot.  The kids all worked on their individual PACE packs.  Then Logan and Savannah had collide church that evening.

Thursday Savannah and Logan worked on their PACE packs.  Lillian had a Wild and Free Group Playdate.  We went to a new to us park, she had a fabulous time.  Logan had a Teen Leader Council Meeting.  



Friday morning Logan and Lillian had dental appointments.  Savannah finished her ASL test.  We have not gotten her official grade yet, but I'm sure she did great.  We also went shoe shopping, and got some material.

Saturday the girls and I had a service project day.  We met up with some of the homeschool group and went to a therapeutic horse ranch to do some clean up work.  It was a great day.  I didn't get photos of Savannah because she was with the teen group. We tried to do some shopping, but ended up exhausted and I got a sick stomach.











It was a crazy busy week.  I always have this thought after we come back to school after a Sabbath Break. "Do my children learn more relevant life lessons during our regular school days, or on our Sabbath Breaks just learning about the things around them and the things that interest them?"  I honestly can't answer it.  I do know I was blessed with the best children in the world!  I love them each so much.

Week 4 in Review

I really can't believe it is September!  This was our 4th week in school. We still are not doing every subject every day.  What we typically try to do is one day we do our morning subjects of Meteorology, Bible, Geography, Art, Math, and Language Arts, and then the next day do our afternoon subjects of PE/Health, History, Spelling for Savannah, Reading for Lillian, Logan's Elective, Writing, and Science.  We do this until we are familiar with our new curriculum and are more independent so I can divide my time up where I am most needed. We do this until after fair week. For some reason we are never able to get full days of school in until after fair.  I use to fight this and get all stressed out about not having full days...now we just roll with it.  We still end the year right where we need to be, and we get to enjoy getting started back in school instead of it being stressful. Here are a few highlights of this past week. The week started on Sunday with churc...

Summer Week 9

I didn't keep day to day records this week, but here are the highlights. We had church on church days. 😊 We celebrated an Adoption of some friends of ours. They make such a lovely family, and we will continue to pray for their growth and bonding. Lillian did a couple of science experiments.  She made a tornado in a bottle and an ocean in a bottle. Dad had help from the kids this week with the barn. They finished enclosing it.  All they lack now is making the doors. Lillian, Buddy, and I went to the park one morning. We picked a theme for our homeschool year.  It is going to be "Having Fun in Arkansas."  We are planning to try and visit quite a few state parks that we have not visited before. We will also try to take in a few festivals, AGFC classes, or just look around at what we can find. We were in the hay field one afternoon. Lillian was a great helper. One of our cats had kittens. We have lots of deer coming to o...

Deuteronomy 31:8 "The Lord himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.  Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged." I know Jesus is always with me.  I know He will never leave me.  I take great comfort in that knowledge.  However I often forget the last part of that verse, to not be afraid.  Even more often, I forget to not be discouraged.  I have found myself discouraged a lot this week, and even some pretty scary events have happened this week, one of which is not my story to tell.  We are struggling.  I pray we all find our footing, and joy again soon. Last Saturday when we went to pick up the kids from Meme and Papa's, Logan had made knickerbocker glory from his Harry Potter cookbook.  It was delicious! He did an amazing job! Sunday the kids stayed with Meme and Papa again while Shane and I went to church to teach our classes.  The flu is so bad here!  We are trying to keep f...
