We have finished the first four weeks of school. I continue to be amazed at how smoothly the weeks fly by. It is such hard work .... but it is work I enjoy more than ANYTHING I have ever done ..... ever. I am SO blessed. As we see the school bus go by each day now that the neighborhood kids have started back to school, I just thank God for the opportunity to have mine here with me.
People have begun to ask me if I plan to homeschool through High School. I honestly think most of my friends and family probably thought this was a phase that would pass. I guess when we started year two they must have thought we had "crossed over" into being THOSE people. haha
I still don't have the answer to their question. I stick with the "one day at a time" answer (Nope .... not even one YEAR at a time .... one DAY). I have been humbled by God on enough occasions to never say never. I certainly NEVER thought I would homeschool so how can I possibly say with any certainty how long I will continue?
All I know is that in this moment, I am confident that in regards to school, we are right in the middle of His will for us. That peace is what makes it go so smoothly. Of that I am confident.
Ok .... I will lighten up now. =)
Science is the most "photogenic" subject we have around here so again I have pictures from science. Bubby's latest "experiment". (Note: We have to call ALL science related projects or assignments "experiments" because he is SO jealous of all of Fancy's experiments).
This past week we were learning about solar eclipses.
Notice - Bubby worked hard to get the eclipse lined up with Texas in the second pic.

Great pictures! I love how you describe your school days. God is so good.
And I had to laugh at the shirtless science for Bubby. So many times I want to take a school picture for my blog/records and I'll have to tell Kyle, "Go get some clothes on, honey!" LOL Bethany doesn't do school in her pj's anymore... she's raising the bar around here...
Love y'all!
Yeah, I too have done that. This time, I thought I'd "keep it real". He actually had showered and was ready for bed when he decided we just HAD to do this science project (it was already 9pm). It was on the agenda for the next day and he couldn't wait one second more. Daddy was happy to oblige.
