Pre-K and Kindergarten

Today, I started teaching the girls from the Sonlight curriculum. We used it last year when Mollie was in preschool and loved it, so we opted to use it for her K year as well.  The girls were so excited to finally be able to write in their workbooks. They've been looking through them off and on all summer. We got off to a great start and look forward to completing our tasks together. I just love homeschooling. I know it's not the right choice for everyone, but for us, it couldn't be better.  Blessings.

Decluttering

Just when I think I'm done with decluttering, I check some computer files.  This is a treasure the girls saved from a while back.  My work is not yet done, but I'm getting there! Blessings. 

Camp 2014

The girls will be attending our church's co-op this year. (You begin the program when your oldest child is a kindergartner.) Anyhow, the families involved have a camp out prior to the start up.  My two are beyond excited about camp, about school, and being with their friends.  It's been fun listening to them chatter about it.  Now, off to pack. Blessings.

OBX

Last week, Andy and I spent time in the outer banks of North Carolina. Without the girls. It was very different being without them for so long, my folks kept them so we could take our anniversary trip.  One thing that we got to do was take a tour in Corolla to see he wild horses on the beach.  It's been something I've wanted to do since reading Misty of Chincoteague when I was a girl.  Overall, it was an awesome trip, in spite of Bertha causing it to rain for the first few days. God has blessed me so much and I am thankful--for my husband and 8 yrs of marriage, for sweet girls, for my folks and siblings, for rainbows at the beach, for the sounds of the ocean and for memories made on this trip.  Blessings.
