Family

I come from a large family. I have three older brothers and a younger sister. We are all grown and have our own families but we are still fairly close.
This weekend was a great example of what family is about. My parents had some junk on their property that had to be cleaned up( DEP said so). All of us came home to Mom and Dad's to help them get it cleaned up and we spent most of the day working on it. It was great because we got to see each other and work together and all the cousins got to play together for a while.
I'm so grateful for my family and for the fact that I was raised in a Christian home.

Blessings

Another week has gone by and homeschooling is going well. Kurt is starting to understand that he needs to listen during school and not be so bossy.
On another note I have had the opportunity to open our home to friends this week and I so enjoyed it . On Friday I had a Tupperware party and we had such a fun time (thanks Mrs.Purdy) then on Sunday we had our monthly ladies Bible study.It was such a good time of getting to know each other and getting to know our Lord better too. On Wednesday we will be hosting a small group from our church, I look froward to that as well. When ever I have the opportunity to have folks over I do because I am always blessed.

Resource Review

Good website for homescholing families, www.homeschoolzone.com.

Fall pleasures

Well the first week of homeschooling went pretty good considering it was the first week. Of course I did have a few issues with my son wanting to be boss and tell me how it was going to be. I hope we got that under control.
On another note this weekend I was able to go and minister to my best friend as she is in the process of adjusting to a new life. (new job and her son starting school) I pray my little bit of help was an encouragement to her and hope she knows how much I love her and know she can make it through this hard time.
As I'm writing this blog my husband is watching the first game of the new football season, that is if he can hear it through his SNORING! He really loves those Eagles. The start of football always makes me feel good, not because I love football but because it means cooler temps. are coming, beautiful fall colors,burning candles and the holidays right around the corner.
Well hope all of you have a great week and I'll talk to you next week.

New Start

Wow, How time flies! With the new shool year starting I thought I would give this a try again. It's like a chance to start over. Tomorrow I will start homeschooling my son and my niece both of them are in Kindergarten. They are very excited and so am I. I'm just very thankful for the opportunity to teach them at home. I will try to blog as often as I can.
