Week 6

Wow. It's week 6 of school and we are as busy as ever. Do you see the theme? (my last post was 2 weeks down!) We've been eating, sleeping, and dreaming school for the entire time! The children are quite done already, and ready to go back to Sonlight and just mom being in charge. We're going to give this more time, though. We don't want to quit because the going gets tough. Unfortunately, we won't get our first real break until Thanksgiving! The good news is that we are not far off from our goals. One thing is for sure. I have had to become more organized than ever. I've also seen my own heart more clearly and don't like what so easily comes out. This has been a good growing experience for all of us.

Today, I have hope... we are just going to work through as much as we can and not worry about the rest. Also, I have now recruited Daniel to help with the schooling process. Instead of focusing on him and making him the center of our day, we are now allowing him to be a teacher. Today, so far he has schooled two subjects to Anthony (with some of my help) and I am about to have him begin his own work this afternoon. That is a huge blessing! May it continue to work!
