Change….

I used to love change when I was younger but as I have gotten older change is NOT something I embrace.  It is just too hard to change, sometimes we just want everything to stay where we are comfortable but in life we are meant to sometimes change.  We are expected to grow in Christ, switch jobs and homes at times, sometimes even towns and states!  I know many of you have moved many times and that can be really HARD.  We have to adapt to the loss of a loved one and the addition of a new one!  Change usually grows us, it moves our lives in a foward direction so we can see all that God has in store for us, but of course it can feel scary at times so we pray for courage before going on.

My life has changed so much since I starting blogging three years ago, wow!  I now have three children that are going to be officially SCHOOL Age, I can’t believe it-no more toddlers, babies or preschoolers.  I have truly experienced loss with someone I loved dearly.  She is waiting for me in heaven but it has been quite the adjustment.   I have starting working from home part time for my brother (attorney) and started to review products which I love.  Life is full and busy! 

I felt in order to keep blogging, which I love, I would have to make it easier for me.  Again I hate change but have decided to move my blog, I love homeschoolblogger and love that I have been sharing my life here for three years but felt I needed something that was quicker and easier for myself.  I know homeschoolblogger is about to make many changes and I think it will be great, however I have decided to move on.    So PLEASE come over and see me at

 and subscribe or follow me, I don’t want to lose any of you that read my blog!  I am just trying to simplify my life!  I will be able to have my feeder right on my blog to check out my favorite blogs everday and post very quickly!

Many times change in our lives can be a good thing, there is so much in store for us that we can’t possibly know about !

 

I’m so excited about this conference this year.   I can’t wait to hear Sue talk about the workboxes, Tiany-about being a work at home homeschooling mom (I could sure use ideas how to balance it all) and many more.  All the speakers look great!   You get a goodie bag full of freebies, a download to all the seminars to listen to whenever you want  and much more.  You have to check it out!

Things To Come!

Well, for the ones who have read my blog for awhile you are probably wondering what happened to my blog?  I have truly let it go, huh?  Well, not exactly!  I am taking this summer to really organize my life.  I want my new school year in the fall to be ready to go and I’m so excited to be doing Creations to the Greeks with My Fathers World.  I love the Bible and LOVE the Old Testament so this will be just a great year for us.  We will be doing biblical feasts, building a tabernacle and much more.  Can’t wait. 

I’m also starting timeline books from Homeschool In The Woods and I’m really excited about this.  My children will have personal timeline books to take with them when they graduate that  have all the wonderful things they learn about.  The Bible characters and stories, History Figures and even things in our family, birthdays, things that have happened to us and even our favorite authors, along with much more.  This will be so much fun!

The biggest change in our homeschool will be the workboxes.  I’m diving in and we are going to implement theworkbox system.  My children are already excited about this and I think it will change so many things.  They will be able to visually see what they have done and how much they have left and I will be able to include so many of the wonderful things that are fun I have always wanted to include but never feel like I have had the time.  I will be taking lots of pictures of setting it up and how we do things.  I’m even changing my schoolroom around this year to be more workable for my family… 

I am organizing a lot!  I want my home life to be better and less chaotic this year so I’m using this summer to make that happen!  So I will not be blogging as much until the fall BUT…………

I have some changes coming to my blog as well.  I need to be able to simplfy my blogging so that I can share more with you and you will see the change soon.  I hope you like it and I’m excited about that as well but it is taking me time!  Can’t wait to unveil it! 

I will be posting some giveaways on my other blog and will write in to let you know about them and when to check them out and I will be putting up my parenting seminar notes from my parenting bible study I have been doing this summer, I can’t believe only 2 weeks left!  So don’t forget me, check in once in a while and it won’t be long and I will be blogging again on a more regualar basis sharing what I love the most.  My family and my homeschooling!

Happy 4th!
