We are Homeschooling!

That's our big news for now! I will be homeschooling a 3rd grader, a 2nd grader, and my preschooler! This is something that I have always wanted to do. This year it just became a necessity or what we decided was way better for our kiddos! We are all excited to see what this year brings. I pray that it will:

-bring us closer together
-give us a freedom from most of that "school stuff" that took up a lot of time/$
-give my chilren a chance to get stronger in their weak areas
-give us more time to study God's Word together
-allow the boys to spend more time with Dad doing things they love

We are planning on joining our nearest homeschool group so there will be plenty of time for play with friends(as if having 3 other siblings isn't enough). We will also be at the mission to work two days a week. These will be days for the boys to do some "on their own" type of work. I do know that this won't always be the easiest thing but I think it is the best for this year.

Our oldest will continue to go to school for now. Seventh grade is too much for me at this point. I would love to have a year under my belt with just the younger kids.
So, I will try my best to keep you updated on all of this. Please pray for us as we embark upon this new adventure this year!
