School begins again!!!

After a few months of break, and just dong a lil' bit of school here and there. We are back into a full school schedule.

Matthew and Jacob are excelling at their computer work and basically have about two more weeks before they have completed everything and I will need to purchase more stuff.

Emma is reading like a champ!!! I love listening to her read!!!

Anna is ready to do anything that is right there along with her brother and sisters.

Ashley will be officially starting Vocational School in a few weeks, early September. She is so excited about going and doing her first ever, "school shopping" .

Our budget is tight this year but luckily I was able to piece a lot of stuff together for the kiddos, and then we will do unit studies as well.

I look forward to doing the unit studies again with the kids, they are a favorite for all of us.

Hit the local Target last night for some .40 cent crayons, .90 cent markers, erasers, folders, and other fun school stuff!!!

Looking forward to what the new school year brings.

Hubby was in an accident....

Proverbs 31 11 Her husband has full confidence in her and lacks nothing of value. 12 She brings him good, not harm, all the days of her life. The blaring ring of the phone woke me on Tuesday morning... 7:15am... I knew as soon as I looked at the clock, something was wrong. No one calls here that early.. I quickly peel a child out of my arms and trying to not wake her, before the phone does. She had a restless night. "hello" in a whisper.. as I was still in my bedroom. Walking out of my room, I hear my darling hubbys nervous voice, "I was in an accident" Me, "Are you ok"... Him, "yes" Me" do you need me to come?" Him, "no, I'll call you" He explained what happened. His company truck was pretty messed up, and the air bags went off. He said he had some airbag burn, felt ok, just stressed. Next call I got was from him in the police car, the officer was kind enough to drop him off at work. The convers...

Our Journey through Unemployment..

Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future After 24 years with his company, and after a seriously rough few weeks. My dh was let go from his job. I have such sadness, not because he was let go but more because this was originally my grandfathers business, and with dh working there.. it was still somehow a connection to my grandfather whose been gone for several years now. I will miss the smell of the "shop" . I will miss seeing the equipment my grandfather started out with in his garage. I will miss the familiarity of it all. It's a closing chapter for me personally. I still miss my grandfather. For my husband, I am happy.  I can't imagine the pressure he felt in his life for him to come home from being fired and he physically looked relieved. He said for the first time in years he can breathe! What a sense of burden he must have felt. My...
