20/21 School Year - Week 10

-

 This has been a week of meetings, events, and places to be.

While we were at home we worked diligently on PACE packs.  Several were completed.  Savannah also had two ASL classes and work for each class. That is all the book work that happened this week.  It was a week of rich learning though. 

Monday we had our zoom with friends.  We then went to the Texarkana Library and checked out new books and movies for the week.  Afterwards we went to volunteer training out at the Runnin WJ Ranch. I am so excited about this volunteer opportunity for our family.

Tuesday Savannah had ASL.  Then Logan had a meeting with yet another new case worker.  I hope this one lasts awhile, the constant changing is stressful to everyone in the situation.

Wednesday Logan had an appointment with a new doctor in Little Rock.  Meme and Papa took him.  The girls and I stayed home.  Lillian got pretty sick today, high fevers, headaches, and simply not feeling well.  Shane also started running fever this day.  Wednesday evening we had to get Shane and Lillian Covid19 tested.  They both game back negative, Praise be to God!!  Logan and Savannah had online church.

Thursday Savannah had ASL, Lillian was still sick, and Logan worked on finishing up some PACE packs.  I also took Savannah to the Nashville Library today.

Friday our Fall Co-op with our homeschool group started. Lillian and I headed out early for onsite co-op.  Then we had a picnic at the park and played with friends.  When we got home Lillian had online co-op.




Saturday morning Logan and Savannah had online co-op.  Savannah also started not feeling well.  Saturday evening was our homeschool fall festival.






We had lots of fun getting out this week.  We enjoyed getting to see our friends again and enjoy some outdoor events.

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...

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...
