New blogging technique

The Homeschool Mother's Journal

I found this site and I am so excited about it. It will totally help me stay on topic for my blog. We will see how long it will last...

In my life this week…hubby was really sick and stayed home one day from work. He never misses work. He made homemade chicken soup and we ate leftovers for 2 days. It was so delicious and no one else has gotten sick. We always call it Daddy's miracle soup. The girls and I also went to the Zoo before Nightime Zoo was over. We met Lisa and Kate there and had so much fun!


In our homeschool this week…We just started Monday and we got a lot done. The kids were motivated by the schedule I set for them to do themselves but fizzled out by Wed. We did a lot of reading together for History but they were bored. On the plus side they had so much fun learning about their brains! Who knew?

My favorite thing this week was…the excitement the girls had for anatomy. They weren't into it at first but we started by tracing their bodies on a big sheet of paper and cutting out our brains :)

Things I’m working on…a schedule. We really need something that works around the baby but still involves her.

I’m reading…a series by G.A. McKevett. i can't stop!

I’m cooking…potato salad tomorrow. i am totally craving it!

I’m grateful for…my friend Kay who told me today that even though I don't think I have it altogether, I pretty much do and have some faith in God and myself.

I’m praying for…a friend's friend named Aubree. She has cancer and isn't doing well. I am also praying for my brother and his girlfriend.

A photo, video, link, or quote to share…If God brings you to it, He will bring you through it.
