Multitude Monday- Blessings #246-255
 
The blessings just keep flowing from our God above.  What a mighty and awesome God we serve.  Without God my life would be void and incomplete.  Thank you God for the many blessings you have given me.

Here are a few random things that I am so happy to have or be a part of.

246.  Friendships

247.  Family

248.  A mom’s night out with fellow homeschooling moms.

249.  Books.  I truly love to read.  It helps me to relax.

250.  A book club for moms.  A friend and I are forming this.

251.  Hip Homeschool Moms

252.  Seeds of Faith

253.  ThirtyOne.  A company named after Proverbs 31 and one I am proud to be part of.

254.  Pix-O-Sphere

255.  The many friends that I have made from the blogging world.  

You can also take part in the Multitude Monday by visiting A Holy Experience.  What are you thankful for or what blessings have you received this week?  I would love to hear them!

Homeschool Mother’s Journal

Homeschool Mother’s Journal

My wonderful friend Sue over at The Homeschool Chick has started a great link-up. I thought I would participate in it. It will reflect on what we accomplished this past week in our homeschooling journey.

The Homeschool Chick

In my life this week…


As usual, the week was a busy one.  I stay busy with the 3 younger children at home.  My wonderful hubby heads into work and takes our oldest son with him to the college.  
Besides being busy with the normal mom duties, I also help with the Hip Homeschool Moms.  I love helping out other homeschoolers on their journey. The Hip Homeschool Moms have recently started The Hip List.  You can buy, sell and trade your homeschooling materials on this site.  I have also been studying as to what God would have me share on Seeds of Faith, where I am a contributer.
I have been busy praying to God, asking Him what he would have me do with my gifts He has given me.  I want to be an encouragement to moms in their Christian walk as well as their homeschooling journey.


In our homeschool this week…
I had just posted this last week on what we have been using in our homeschool.  Sarah is using America the Beautiful and was studying about Laura Ingalls Wilder.  Samuel and Claire have been busy learning about Dinosaurs.  


Places we’re going & people we’re seeing… 
This past week Sarah went to dance and musical theater.  We went to church on Wednesday night and had a fun time visiting all of our friends.  Thursday we were able to stay at home and have a relaxing day.  Friday, Sarah has tutoring and Michael went to his job.  Friday night, I was able to attend a mom’s night out.  I went with another homeschooling friend.  She left her youngest son here to play with Samuel and Claire.  They had a blast!  Sarah helped with the younger musical theater class with their production on the weekend.  She helped run props out on stage.


My favorite thing this week was…
We had so many wonderful memories during this last week.  One of my favorite memories is seeing the kids all playing together on Friday night.  They laughed so much and didn’t want their friend to leave.


What’s working/not working for us…
As much as I love Sarah’s history curriculum, she is just not happy with it.  So we will possibly be looking for a different curriculum for next year.  I will also be looking for a different curriculum for the younger ones.  However we will finish with what we have this year.


Homeschool questions/thoughts I have…
I am already starting to look for curriculum for next year.  I know how my daughter feels about her History curriculum and I know I definitely need something different for the younger kids.  I would like something I could use with all three and just adapt it to their needs.  The last few days, I have looked at Tapestry of Grace.  I used it last year with my oldest and she loved it.  I am just concerned on if I will be able to adapt it with the younger two.


A photo to share…
I don’t have a school photo to share.  So I am going to leave you with a random photo from my stash.  He lost his first tooth and already has another one that is loose.  





I hope you have enjoyed a look into a week of our homeschooling journey! 🙂
