So, I guess it has been about a month since my last post. I know I need to get better at remembering this thing! Anyway, Monkey started softball & is loving it. Beast is growing & finally wearing some 18-24 months clothes (at almost 3 years old!). Monster is moving through the grief process of her bio mother, step father, and two younger siblings as well as expected for an 8 year old. (For newer visitors, they did not pass away. She is not allowed to have any contact with them per bio-mom's request after the events in July 2011.)
Hubby is coming up on the one year mark at his "new" job & he still loves it most days.
We are finishing up our first year of home school & I can say that it wasn't what I expected, but we are learning - ALL of us! I am learning what not to do, how to adjust lessons for our girls' needs, how to balance the fun with the seat work, & how to navigate the treacherous questions & comments of those who either don't understand or too close minded to see our choice as OURS. :) We're looking forward to our first Stanford 10 tests in early May & seeing just how much we have grown.
Hubby & I took a WONDERFUL seminar today with Tina Houser at our church. She is hilarious, engaging, and innovative. I can't wait to use her ideas for teaching children in our church as well as our home!
See ya soon, but for now it's dinner time. God bless!
